The sixties offer so many forgotten bands, like the Canadian psychedelic group, The Paupers – who loved them some chess. I am curious to know what was included in the Fan Club package (arriving via rush delivery).

They had a few modest hits, upstaged Jefferson Airplane, and played at the Monterey Pop Festival. Here’s a Friday song bonus of theirs called “If I Told My Baby” which I quite like:

While going through storage I found this tiny Cyndi Lauper tee that I wore as a tot. She was a huge influence and I am amazed that I have managed to hold onto this tattered old tee for so long – and very glad I have!

A drink I had just last week at a place in Long Island City called Dutch Kills Bar. It was called the Von Trapp. And it was delightful.

One of the very first hair meta bands.

I found and fell in love with these images but had no idea who the band was. With some investigating, I found the name Sadistic Mika Band and am completely intrigued. Must learn/hear more…
