Some Bellagio Gigs/sessions updates...

[Ian]

The Bellagio Gigs/Sessions site is now so crammed with info that it may be easy to miss when new info is added. For those that are interested-I found evidence that shows the BBs played a TV show in Rome on Nov 11 1964. As Earl Leaf mentions a day of photos and sight seeing the next day-this allows us to precisely date all those photos of the BBs at the Vatican, Trevi Fountain and elsewhere to Nov 12 1964.  Also found evidence of a show at Duke on Apr 28 1966.  Shows at Purdue in September 1968.  A show at Maryland State Prison in March 1972, plus many others-including three Canadian shows from 1982.  Turns out that Carl returned to the BBs for a few days at the end of March 1982(rather than May 2 as previously supposed)-he played in Moncton and Halifax (each show was reviewed and photographed) but then was back in CA to mix his album-before returning full time in May 1982.  He may have played with them Apr 2, 3 1982 in Indiana-but the show wasn't reviewed-so no proof.  Plus various venues for shows from 1982-1992 for which we previously listed only the city.  Anyways-if you like this kind of trivia-then check it out
