I joined this band after moving to Oregon during high school. The music was soft rock (Carpenters, Bread, James Taylor, Brewer and Shipley--I hated it) and at least one parent accompanied us on gigs. They even tried to get me to wear a fringed vest. Jack Tackle is now a world-renowned mountain climber. We played at least twice week during this period, at bars (carefully supervised) school and college dances, store openings, fairs, and even a wresting arena in Portland. We were managed by Pat Johnson, who was a dedicated and tireless promoter of our music, who used to "dress to the nines," in her words, to help get us more money.Larry Fritts, April 2003
