The other guys were a wealth of info with vast knowledge and record collections. I came across the video on a Uraguay cultural website. Theres loads of Los Shakers vids on youtube now. Rompan Todo!

I'd forgotten about that place.
I remeber getting interviewed there in the early 80's for some paper, and I was taking a drink before replying to a question, and I accidently inhaled an ice cube out of my glass and into my lung.

Did the Storm ever play at place in Clinton Ontario called the Elm Haven? I seem to remember that but I might have been stoned.....

At 12:17am on January 28, 2008, Pete The Gripper (aka Dgrador) said…: I know the Ridout doesn't count, that's just the point where they intersect with me. At that time I was plying like everyone else who plyed the R, so what I remember is that they could barely play in the traditional sense. They were sloppy, probably out of tune, etc. Possibly covered Pistols/Ramones. But they had the swagger, and managed to keep the clientele speechless for at least the first couple of songs before the catcalls started.

At 2:21pm on January 27, 2008, Andy Butler said…: Hi Jimmy...thanx for the add....seems you have seen and done alot...very cool !

At 10:32pm on January 26, 2008, Pete The Gripper (aka Dgrador) said…: The Demics crashed my gig to play 4 or 5 songs way back when. Apparently that was their first public performance.
