I'd like to include some pics of other bands we were fond of that were from the Chicago. "The Troys" were very important to us as were "The Saints". The two groups combined in 1967 and the result was a local south side "super group" that was amazing! "The Flock" headlined the Bloom battle, "Saturday's Children" were very much like the "Beatles". The "American Breed" were formally "Gary and the Knight Lites". There are a couple of pics of "Capt. Zero and his Bushmen" and "The Bad Habits" along with a pic of "The Jaywalkers", groups that were in the Bloom battle of the bands.
