- In late 1958, General Artists Corporation assembled a rock & roll tour that traveled through the upper Midwestern states and featured some of the music's biggest stars. It was billed as the Winter Dance Party and featured Buddy Holly and the Crickets, Ritchie Valens, the Big Bopper, Dion and the Belmonts and Frankie Sardo. It kicked off on January 23rd, 1959 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and became one of the most infamous tours in rock & roll history. Organizationally, the tour was a complete catastrophe. The shows were often scheduled hundreds of miles apart from one another as the tour zigzagged through one of the deadliest winters the Midwest had seen in decades in the worst transportation available. Throughout these chaotic circumstances, the performances remained exciting and the music brought a joy that would remain forever in the hearts and minds of all who attended. Then the unthinkable happened. After their performance at the Surf Ballroom in Clear Lake, Iowa on February 2nd, 1959, Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and J.P. the "Big Bopper" Richardson were killed when their chartered airplane crashed shortly after taking off from nearby Mason City Municipal Airport. The flight need not have even occurred had travel arrangements on the tour been halfway acceptable. That day was forever immortalized as "the day the music died" by Don McLean in his 1972 anthem American Pie, as the tour and subsequent tragedy symbolized the end of a period in both rock & roll and American history. An entire era came to a close as the turbulent sixties approached and the Winter Dance Party tour became the swan song for that time.

- "The Movie at the End of the World" is a compilation documentary about the life and work of the late North Dakota poet, Thomas McGrath. Also known as Dream Champ, Tommie the Commie, Crazy Horse, Peasant Poet, Longshot O'Leary and Tom Fool, McGrath wrote thirty books of poems, two novels, a couple books for children and some twenty scripts for feature and documentary films. In the film we see Tom exploring his birthplace near Sheldon, North Dakota, looking around at a steam threshers reunion in Rollag, Minnesota, teaching at Moorhead State University, visiting his lookalike brother Martin who worked at the Tonka Toy factory, watching his son Tomasito play soccer, writing at home and giving a fine poetry reading at the Rourke Art Museum. Narrated by Frederick Manfred, shot by Jim Mulligan, and written, edited and directed by Mike Hazard and Paul Burtness, the film features a fine collection of poems as well as a lively suite of pieces from his film work. Running 56:56, it premiered in 1982, then was remastered with a new mix in 1990 upon the poet's death. Looked at in one way, the movie is a triptych. Each of the three sections can be seen as an illumination of a line from the poet's epic masterpiece, Letter to an Imaginary Friend: History is the labyrinth, labor the low high road and art the curved arrow to our common heaven. The first part is about making bread, the second about earning it and the third about the hunger for it. Threaded with a number of audiovisual experiments with poetry, the program has stolen its title from McGrath's collected poems, The Movie at the End of the World. The film is a lot of lists, from the name-calling open of the narration to the catalog of names for heaven to the fruits and vegetables of the final poem, Praises. Chameleon-like narration tries to echo and conspire with what the poet says. Due to the anonymous nature of the screenwriter's art, McGrath is possibly the world's most heard, least known poet and writer. Author of twenty film scripts, his Imax works like Genesis, Living Planet and To Fly play and have been playing worldwide in twenty languages. Produced by The Center for International Education, The Movie was supported by grants from North Dakota Humanities Council, Minnesota State Arts Board and South Dakota Committee on the Humanities. The video is useful for teens and adults who are interested in poetry, American history, North Dakota, politics and film. Nationally broadcast on PBS, more than 200 schools, individuals and libraries have acquired it for their collections.
