Centennial Square July 1, 2012


Today's picture was taken July 1, 1967 in Centennial Square 45 years ago when the group "Blues X Five" won the Centennial Battle of The Bands (L-R) Ed Wright, Richard Moore (The Troggs) & John Fisher. Last month we posted a video from 1966 called "A Townscape Rediscovered" and we were able to identify musicians Ed Wright, Britt Hagarty and Cyril McColgan so because of that, we'll leave the video posted for now.

Today's band addition: Su Egypt and The Big Eyed Beans From Venus

Today's band update: Red Tide

Today's profile update: Peter Karpuchin

Today's gallery update: Harpo's (2), CKDA (1), and Zylus (1)
