I happen to work for a certain entertainment company that is rumored to have negatives of the "Pied Piper" film. I've reached out to the some folks in the movie department who said they would do a little research for me on the subject. Other than what is general public knowledge, is there any other info I might be able to give them to guide them in their search?
Thanks
Doc, need some guidance

The filmed portions of "A Day In The Life Of A Famous Disc Jockey" (aka "The Pied Piper Of Cleveland") were performances given on Thursday afternoon, October 20, 1955 at Brooklyn High School in Cleveland, Ohio by these acts:
Pat Boone
The Four Lads
Bill Haley and His Comets
Elvis Presley
Priscilla Wright
A film short from this was apparently screened in late 1955. But the movie and its soundtrack have been "lost" ever since.

Please let us know what happens with all of this! Post it in "All Elvis." And good luck.
