Winter Carnival 1962 -- The Peppermint Twist

Hey Ric. Do you remember anything about this photo?, we asked. Rick Beresford's prompt response: "Sure I remember! That was the Winter Carnival at Central in early 1962. Lynn Spellman had been elected Queen, and if I'm not mistaken, Bud Bruzek was the King who crowned her. Carol Engstrom and I were the eighth grade "attendants," and a kid named Gary Riley was the 7th grade guy attendant (his dad was a veterinarian). The Silvertones were playing a few songs on the gym stage at Central, and Mike Geiser (cool vest... way ahead of his time) came up to sing Peppermint Twist (by Joey Dee and the Starlighters) with us. Karl Tegland (above right) was playing his Fender Jazzmaster and I was playing a Fender Musicmaster (wish I still had it), and I think we both played through Karl's Montgomery Wards Airliner amplifier seen in the picture."
Thanks for the great memory, Ric. Did you guys have any drums?
