What's Happening: Scranton 1968


Another ad from What's Happening at 101 Pittston Avenue in Scranton, from Thursday April 18, 1968. I assume The Remains are the famous group. This seems like it was a popular venue for a time in the late-60's. By the Spring of 1969 it must have been closed since no mentions of it are found.

Mel Wynn & The Rhythm Aces appear to be a fairly active band on the local scene during this era as well.

I'm looking for information on this, and other rock and roll events from the 1950's and 60's.

More info can be found on my other site: http://remnantsofthepast.piczo.com/?g=1&cr=5

And I finally fixed the comment page there as well.
