This is the story of The Wallace and Ladmo Show, an Arizona institution for 35 years that influenced some of Rock-and-Roll's most outrageous bands, such as Alice Cooper, The Tubes, and Gin Blossoms.There are two ways to enjoy the story of the show: I have created a timeline which takes you through all of the important dates in the history of the show, with links to pictures, RealMedia video files, and other related web pages and sites where appropriate. I must confess that all of these pictures came from the View Designs book and are used with the generous permission of View Designs and blessings from Pat McMahon. Also, to give further credit where credit is due, some of the wording in parts of the timeline are verbatim out of the book, while other parts are paraphrased sentences from the book, and yet other parts of the timeline are completely my own words. I have not differentiated between these three sources within the actual timeline, but I believe it's fairly easy to differentiate between the writing styles. No plaguerism is intended, just the dissemination of historical information.
There's also a condensed history right here in RealMedia
