February 5, 1957 – Bill Haley arrives in London for his first British tour. He’s the first American rock star to tour there and is met by about 4,000 fans at Heathrow Airport, mostly thanks to promoters who hyped his coming as “the second battle of Waterloo.” #ROCkabillyHop @billhaleymusic #BillHaley #RocHop #OTD #RockNRoll
