The band was formed after
Keith was jilted by his original group effort
"Action Plus". Bass players were in demand so he
bought the Framus and slid into the fledgling
Revised Edition. Personalities never really meshed
however and the band fell apart after a year or so.

Best
Gig:
A High
School Sorority Dance Party. The band
performed well that night and REALLY
impressed the girls for some reason. Our
first near-groupie experience! Ah yes,the
girls!

|
|
Gig
from
Hell!:
A rainy
Saturday afternoon "Battle of the Bands"
at a local youth club called "The Mump".
Our new equipment got soaking wet (so did
we) and our performance was terrible. In
addition to that we were severely
scrutinized by all of the "Rich Kid"
groups of the metropolitan
area.

|
|
Last
Gig:
A private
party in the Suburbs. Very uneventful and
I was ready for the next musical project
by that time anyway.

Comments:
Wish we had taken
a few snap shots of the band. It would add so much
to our brief little story.
That was a great time to be a kid, eh?!
