31st Street and Main St., Kansas City MO. Lots of big bands like Artie Shaw and Benny Goodman played there in the 30's. There was a Bowling alley in the basement. I missed all that as I was born in the mid 50's but it was later re-opened briefly in 1970 and renamed "Freedom Palace"I think. I went there one time to see (hear) Canned Heat. I remember seeing a cop (security) using bullets for earplugs.

Guy Lombardo and his band, the Royal Canadians, performed at the Chermot Ballroom in Omaha, Nebraska, on several occasions during the mid-20th century, notably in the 1940s and 1950s. The Chermot Ballroom was a popular venue for big band music during that era. Specific dates may vary, but Lombardo's performances in Omaha are remembered as significant events in the local music scene. For precise dates, historical records or concert programs from that time would be necessary.

Ballroom dancing in the Philippines gained popularity during the American colonial period in the early 20th century, influenced by Western dance styles introduced through social events and schools. The dance form further evolved with the rise of dance halls and competitions in the 1950s and 1960s. In recent decades, ballroom dancing has flourished as both a recreational activity and a competitive sport, with various local and international competitions showcasing Filipino talent. Today, it remains a popular form of entertainment and social interaction across the country.
I believe the terms used were "slums" and "ghettos."
