A follower has sent me some "groovy" pictures of the Military Pickle when they appeared to be at their finest. There is also a picture of Horatio's that appears to be from that same era. According to this individual, the guitar player wearing the wide striped shirt in the photograph that appeared in yesterday's Register is David Bugg. That picture, along with the ones our reader provided, is shown below.
Would the guitar players be then, from left to right, David Bugg, Rick Lagerstrom, and Rob Dimit? Dave Adamson is the one holding the tambourine, while John Behrend is on the keyboards. Jim Wright must be off to the left, playing the drums.
In this picture above, Jim Wright (drums), Dave Adamson (vocalist), and John Behrend (keyboard) are readily identifiable. Would the two guitar players be Rob Dimit (in front) and Rick Lagerstrom (in back)? It does not appear to be Rob in front; Rick Lagerstrom is unknown to me. The one in the back reminds me of Tony Evanoff, but did he ever play in the band?
UPDATE #2: A reliable source has informed me that the two guitar players on the left are John Wrede and Greg Sheldon. These two replaced David Bugg and Rob Dimit. Another "historian" stated that "Behrend,
Wright, and Adamson came from a band called Spectre which also included
the Bortnem brothers. Dimit and Bugg came from the Last Rites which
also included John Richards, Steve Miller,
and Jim May." Thanks to both of these individuals for this information.
In this black and white photo, Jim Wright is in the background, while Dave Adamson is on the right, with Rob Dimit next to him. Would the profile view be that of John Behrend? Is that David Bugg with the helmet and shades, sitting cross-legged in the front?
This photo appears to be Hort's in the late 60s. Before it became Hort's, it was Al's Sport Shop, owned by Al Arndt, father of Jim, class of 1968. My first baseball glove was bought there, probably around 1959, for a cost of perhaps five dollars. Prior to being a sporting goods store, it was a bowling alley. This was an era before automatic pin-setters were commonly used, so some boys earned their spending money by setting pins.
Many thanks to one of our followers for providing us with these memorable photos.
