Back to School Dance: 1967

On August 21, 1967, a 12-hour Back to School dance was held at the Aldrich Arena, featuring the following local bands:  (Thanks to who ever posted this poster on Facebook!)

  • The Mystics
  • The Del Counts
  • Pride & Joy
  • Showtime
  • The Marauders
  • The Bananas
  • The Grasshoppers
  • Sunshine World
  • Zarathustra
  • Kaleidoscope
  • The Sir Raleighs
  • Fairchild

I had this item also:  In August 1967 the Fillmore Light Show came to Aldrich Arena, with six top bands (unnamed in the ad).  Not sure if this is the same event.  A search of Aldrich Arena only brings up hockey games.
