Together in 1965, this band was possibly the first Canadian group to play on a Russian ship. For more details, check out their photo gallery for the article about this moment in time. Our thanks to Garry McKevitt for taking a few minutes to empty out a drawer at home and sending in all of todays updates.

OCTOBER IS DONATION DRIVE MONTH

That's right folks, we are underway with our annual month long fundraiser. Since 2003, the Royal City Music Project and the Victoria Music Hall of Fame have relied on donations to maintain these vital undertakings and this month, we are hoping to raise enough money to continue our good work for another year. It costs time and money to research and restore the audio and video that is enjoyed on the website and there is lots more to come including some unfinished documentaries and a major upgrade to the displays at Darcy's Pub, the brick & mortar home of the Victoria Music Hall of Fame. If you enjoy the website or take in any of the related events, please help us continue by sending in a donation. Cheques and money orders can be sent to the address listed in the contact tab on the website. On November 1st, we will put all those who contributed into a draw for gift certificates donated by local restaurants and hotels. Thank you, your contributions are greatly appreciated!
