Wood 'n Hannah Band: David Wood, John Hannah (of Harlequin fame!), Harvey Kostenchuk, and Bob Wallace.  I can see many of these fashion choices making a comeback but let's all agree that the shirt Mr. Wallace is rocking should remain in the past.

Jazz-rock band Zdenka: Steve Hegyi, Kerry Ladyshewsky, Danny Pelfrey, Greg Black, Glen Hall, and Bob Fuhr.  Apparently history has decided that the most awesome location to photograph rock bands (and jazz-rock bands) is the stairwell.

Floral fashion fiasco

Mary Beighton (wife of T. E. Beighton), Louise Isabel Willis (wife of Errick Willis), and Beryle Ciley (wife of C. D. Ciley), as shown left to right. The women are cutting a cake for the fiftieth anniversary of a Winnipeg municipal chapter of the Imperial Order Daughters of the Empire, and all are wearing I.O.D.E. pins. Little do they realize that a florist's shop has just thrown up all over their formal wear.

Anyone interested in seeing more fashion fiascos?  Believe me, there are lots.

Date: March 21, 1963
