This ad shows that a young Steve Wonder - before he achieved fame - played in Montreal in the week of May 30, 1964.
Stevie Wonder had just turned 14 when he performed at a club at Notre Dame and Davidson long, long gone from the landscape.

Elvis Presley's would-be visit to the Forum in 1957? Nixed by Habs GM Frank Selke. He never played Montreal or anywhere in Quebec. Some speculated that the Catholic church was behind the snub but they were not. He played Ottawa, for what it's worth. A local Elvis impersonator might be inspired of doing a show based on the concert that Elvis never gave.
