Northwest Dance Halls

The Quints on Stage at the Wooden Shoe about late 1967
The Wooden Shoe
Portland, Oregon

Some of the bands that performed at this place during the early years of NW rock and roll were:
 

Don & The Goodtimes
The Montells
The Others
The Pied Pipers
The Quints
The Wailers
 

Others??

One of the last bands to play The Wooden Shoe was the last incarnation of Don & The Goodtimes featuring Don Gallucci, Ron Overman, Bob Holden, Joey Newman & Jeff Hawks.  They were touring to promote their biggest hit, I Could Be So Good To You.   I attended this particular show with the family camera and shot about 50 pictures of the guys in action, which I then promptly gave to Don.  If you can find him, he's got some great Polaroids!
