Kal sent in the great band lineup card from George’s Ballroom in New Ulm, Minnesota, probably from 1966, though ’67 is a possibility as well. Acts include the great T.C. Atlantic, Night Crawlers, He-Toos (never heard of this group before), the Poore Boys, the Jokers Wild, The More-Tishans, Prince & the Paupers, the Epicureans, and Marcia & the Lynchmen.
The photo of the ballroom below is a recent one; after years of disuse, it will be back to hosting polka dances and other entertainment this summer.

I checked a perpetual calendar, and Oct 8 was a Saturday in 66!
I was wondering if Kal could include the other side of the George’s Ballroom card. Thanks Scott
Kal and Carolynne,
I didn’t get a chance to get contact information from you before you left the book signing, is that possible? I would like to stay in contact! Scott
My God, I’ve still got one of these cards laying around somewhere, too. TC Atlantic was the best, and George’s was the place to be!
