Peggy Sue's Rock & Roll Mysteries (comic book)
Peggy Sue's
Rock & Roll Mysteries
Based on an original story by Peggy Sue!
During the early years of rock and roll
many gifted young men and women rocketed to fame and fortune. Sadly,
many of them were not around years later due to various scandals,
manipulations, plots, mysterious deaths, and other unusual
circumstances.
Our stars disappeared right out of the
sky.
What was the role of greedy record
producers, the U.S. Government, Mobsters, and even powerful Cults who
had rock and roll musicians under their microscope with their criticism
of the “unholy Devil's Music?”
Peggy Sue Gerron was in the middle of
the rock and roll storm as it was happening. Join her on a musical journey through the 1950's, as some of the most talented rock and
roll stars quickly rose, and then mysteriously disappeared or faded away - never to
be heard from again. Learn about some of the rampant rumors, the
conspiracy theories, and the manipulations, plots, and mysteries that
nearly put an end to rock & roll before it even had a chance to
fully blossom.
Check out Peggy Sue's Rock & Roll Mysteries.

WHO IS BUDDY HOLLY?
Buddy Holly was an American
singer-songwriter and a pioneer of rock and roll. It is a generally
accepted fact that he is the single most influential creative force
in early rock and roll. Holly was among the first group of inductees
to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and is considered one of the 100
Greatest Artists of All Time.
WHAT HAPPENED TO BUDDY HOLLY?
In January, 1959 Buddy Holly was the
top act on the Winter Dance Party tour. Because of a falling out with
his bandmates in the Fall of 1958, Holly assembled a backing band
consisting of Tommy Allsup (guitar), Waylon Jennings (bass) and Carl
Bunch (drums), and billed them as "The Crickets."
Following a performance at the Surf
Ballroom in Clear Lake, Iowa, on February 2, 1959, Holly chartered a
small airplane to take him to the next stop on the tour. Holly,
Richie Valens, and J.P. Richardson (the “Big Bopper”) and the
pilot were killed en route to Moorhead, Minnesota, when their plane
crashed soon after taking off from nearby Mason City in the early
morning hours of February 3.
WHO IS PEGGY SUE?
Peggy Sue Gerron was born on June 15th, 1940, in Olton, Texas, and grew up in Lubbock, Texas. She was a high
school senior when she was cast into the international spotlight by
Buddy Holly's release of the namesake song that climbed to the top of
1957 Billboard Charts. The rest is musical history.
Following graduation from high school,
Peggy Sue became a member of the Crickets "family" when she
and the group's drummer, Jerry Allison, were married. She shared in
the dreams and extraordinary success of Buddy Holly and the Crickets.
Unfortunately, she also had to share in the ultimate tragedy—the
day the music died.
Vivacious and charming, her infectious
personality captivates audiences at conventions, trade shows, collectors shows, music festivals, universities and corporate
functions with her unique behind-the scenes stories and vignettes of the
music and musicians of that magical era. Learn more about Peggy Sue

Let The Games Begin!
This isn't the sort of thing we normally announce, but we have recently been hired by a handful of incredible clients to create some complex Alternative Reality Games that will ultimately (hopefully) generate attention to benefit their products and services.
As many know, since 1999, the Campfire Network's team has been hired by many high-profile (and many anonymous!) clients throughout the world to design and implement elaborate, deliberate, and sometimes sensational A.R.G.s, red herrings, spoofs, satirical subverting, culture-jamming, guerrilla communications, and good-natured rumors, hoaxes, practical jokes, pranks, and April Fool's Day events. We, and our clients, create, propagate, entrench, and operate in the spirit of fun with the aim of either generating publicity, or educating and increasing awareness of political and social issues, as well as maintaining a mode of checks and balances, so that folks periodically realize that they should not always believe everything they see, hear, and/or read.
