Keith and Denny

The Denny Regrade (aka Aurora Fly Boys) 1974-1977 performed around the Puget Sound and Canada playing a wide range of covers and many original songs.  Members included: Denny Nyhagan,Keith Nordquist, Darral Ulsky, Doug Isbell, Ray Sage, Dain Butcher, Ken McGill, and Rich Sysinger.
Keith Nordquist, November 2002 I was the bass player for the Denny Regrade during the band's 1978-1979 incarnation.  I moved to Seattle in 1978 and got a job at the same company where Ken McGill had his “day gig”.  He invited me to practice with the reforming Regrade and we stayed more or less together through 1979, playing fairly regularly around Pioneer Square and at other venues in Seattle.
