The House Party Hops November 9, 2009
This group, one of the very first Rock & Roll bands in Victoria, performed on Norm Pringle’s “House Party” on CHEK-TV, starting shortly after the station was launched. They were featured during the intermissions at local theatre showings of early Rock & Roll movies. Band members were Vic High and Oak Bay High students. Todays picture is from "House Party" with Norm Pringle sitting between the 2 dancers who are groovin' to that crazy beat. Our thanks to Keith Nesbit for this and a few more entries to come.
