Memories of the Boy's brigade Hall on Saturday Night in the early 60's, with the different bands that used to play. John was there, Dennis(?) Sinclair on vocals and Dopey(?) on drums. They were great times, sadly miss John, God Bless Him......
Bill Mowat ran the Courier later on, and used to set up various gigs with different bands in the Town Hall, had a poster competition one year that his secretary won, what wonderful times they were, too!
Darned if I can remember the name of the early band, though?.....

The band I remember was the Federals. I had no idea that we'd lost him, do you have any more info. Had a chat with Bill Mowat recently at a funeral in Inverness
