Valentine Dance & Show: 1966
Did you attend the Valentine Dance and Show on February 12, 1966?
麻豆视频Archives recently acquired a poster for the event from Vancouver鈥檚 Neptoon Records.
麻豆视频Archives are curious whether the headlining band, The Coasters, is the L.A. band most famous for its 1958 hit 鈥淵akity Yak?鈥� An iteration of the band is known to have performed in Vancouver around that time, including at the King of Clubs at 1275 Seymour Street. However, the band does not appear in the photographs of the event featured in the 1965/66 麻豆视频yearbook (images below).
They are also curious about The Angels -- the American band known for 鈥淢y Boyfriend鈥檚 Back鈥� was touring at the time, but it seems they were already performing under their new moniker The Halos. Of course, it is very possible that there were local bands that went by these names as well.
