The Green Rain (Yakima, WA) performed in a number of configurations from 1965 through 1971 in a variety of locations throughout the northwest, including: fraternity parties at University of Washington, University of Puget Sound, and University of Oregon; community college and high school dances and street parties throughout eastern Washington; and at dance halls such as the Women's Century Club and the Downtown in Yakima.WD Frank, October 2009
When the Fourth of July fell on a Saturday, it became a tradition to close Linden Way for a block party. The Yakima Herald Republic newspaper sent a photographer to take pictures at this unusual (for the time) event. Unfortunately, the Green Rain Horns were taking a breather while the original core group entertained the crowd. You can see the mic stands for our horn players to the right of the guitarist at ground level. This picture ran in the 5 July 1970 edition.
