Uploader: georgespiggot -------- From the New Yorker: "They performed almost exclusively at the Fremont town hall and at a local nursing home, beginning in 1968 and ending in 1973. Many people in Fremont thought the band stank. Austin Wiggin did not. He believed his girls were going to be big stars, and in 1969 he took most of his savings and paid to record an album of their music." --------- From the Berkshire Eagle: The band regularly played dances at the Fremont Town Hall every Saturday night for several years starting in 1968, and that was the most consistent exposure the world had to the band. "There was not much else going on in Fremont for entertainment, so it gave them something to do, to get out, and it gave their parents a break, they would just drop them off," she said. "It was fun watching the kids having fun dancing." The band performed a mix of originals with covers of Marie Osmond, Herman's Hermits and others. "The kids liked to dance fast and they liked polkas," said Dot. "They didn't really do polkas, but they probably thought it was polkas. We did the `Wheelbarrow Polka' and one of Johnny Cash's and did it fast so they could dance to it." --------
