Special Event  |  Cruise Night and Drive In at the Burchfield Penney with Lecture on George "Hound Dog" Lorenz

Thursday, September 27, 2012, 6–10 pm

Cruise to the Burchfield Penney to celebrate an evening of oldies music, then head inside at 7pm for a lecture by director Tony Bannon on Buffalo native George “The Hound Dog” Lorenz (1919-1972), regarded as one of the most important pioneer rock and roll disc jockeys in the history of American broadcasting. In the mid-1950s, his show was carried over the 50,000-watt giant WKBW and was heard across 13 states and Canada.

At 8:30 pm, sit back in your vintage car, or bring a chair and relax and enjoy the film Rebel without a Cause under the stars.
