Sounds of Silence (left to right): Ernie Kull, Dave Westmacott, Bob Finnbogason, Dave King, and Gord Beverage.  Judging from this photo, I'm guessing they got their band name from audience reactions.

Bluegrass band New Tradition (left to right): Gene Bretecher, Harold Mills, and Lynda Mills.  I'm not sure where the stage ends and the band begins!

Winnipeg's Illustrated Rock History - Part 1: Dazed and Confused

Papa Pluto (left to right): Vance Masters, Duncan Wilson, Rick Shukster, and Dave Inglis.  In the movie version of this photograph, the roles of Masters and Wilson will be played by James Franco and Jack Black.  The Shukster and Inglis roles have yet to be cast.  Ideas anyone?
