>Following a mid-1956 showing of Rock Around the Clock in Minneapolis, a group of teenagers had snake-danced around town, breaking windows. The movie’s run was immediately canceled. >When Minneapolis radio station WSPT banned Elvis Presley records later that year, the station received several threatening phone calls. A rock was thrown through the station window with a note saying: >“I am a teenager—you play Elvis Presley or else we tear up this town.” >However, things had settled a bit by the time of the Winter Dance Party.
