Did you ever hear of the Silver Moon? Did you go there?
It was in Newport AR and it hosted soon-to-be-famous stars like Elvis Presley, Fats Domino, Louis Armstrong, Conway Twitty, Sonny Burgess and many others. The club had alcohol, gambling, and live bands and could seat 800.
I found this poster in a drawer in my house and I think Hubby was a patron back in the 50's. Not me. I didn't live in Arkansas. He was familiar with the area and now there is a rock-n-roll highway that remembers it and other night clubs along the highway.
I found this picture of it online. Perhaps a Searcy Sleuth can give us a memory of attending this club or others on the rock-n-roll highway!
