Welk stars at the Surf ballroom

If you're one of the fortunate few to live near Mason City, or anywhere in the state of Iowa....you might be happy to know that the Welk Stars played the legendary Surf Ballroom on Sunday night.

That's the same place where Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper played back in 1959.

Here's the roster of music makers that played the Surf....

Dick Dale....

Big Tiny Little.....

Mary Lou Metzger.....

...and Jack Imel

Here's a nice article about the show from the Mason City Globe Gazette
