Strange & True July 8, 2007


It's official, on Sunday September 16th at Darcy's Pub, the home of Victoria's Rock & Roll Music Hall of Fame, the reunion of Bobby Faulds and The Strangers. Yes all six members will take the stage together for the first time in 42 years for a few tunes including their hit single "Walking Away". They'll be coming from as far away as Australia and Scotland to make it happen. Our thanks to the band for their support of the Royal City Music Project and the Hall of Fame, in orchestrating this one-time only event. We also want to thank Darcy's Pub for letting us take them back in time once again, Ernie Neiderer and the Cruel Shoes Rockin' Blues Band for the PA and of course "His Lightningness" Len Siemens and Lightning Express for hooking up their musical bretheren with the right stuff. This will be magic, at the top of the fun meter! Todays video from 1973 are 2006 and 2007 Hall of Fame inductees BJ Cook and David Foster.

Today video addition: Skylark (Woodstock)

Todays photo L-R Brian Newcombe, Barry Casson, Bobby Faulds, Wes Chambers, Billy Stewart and Doug Edwards
