The old queen has officially been relegated to history’s dustbin. Good riddance.

These “museums” have always seemd to be an exercise in narcissism to me. Most of them have to reason to exist. Likelwise most presidential libraries. Turn that all over to library of congress.

Seriously? Awww...

I remember my mother enthralled by his talent. He was a very talented and a capable keyboard jockey.

As in all things, time passes and the old disappears.

And, unlike Obama, he was actually talented.

I think it was his brother George. Most Liberace fans are now dead or in nursing homes.

I remember we were on a family trip through several western states in 1966, and made a stop in Vegas. We watched Liberace perform at the Stardust. The man could put on a show!

Aw too bad. I would have liked to have seen it when I was in Vegas, didn’t get the chance. Heard it was a pretty good tourist trap.
