The Auburnairs 1982

or maybe it's Dec 11, 1982
or Dec 10 1983
Dunno, it's silly having an Auburnaires ticket anyway, since I saw 'em about a million times over the years. They played in the Corryville bars around Bogart's a lot, Dollar Bill's, Sudsy Mallone's, Daniel's & a couple places whose names I forget. None of them are around anymore. Without The Auburnaires, they just couldn't stay in business! They played a pretty straightforward R&B Rock n Roll. The lead guitarist, a Frogtowner, had been in another local band, The Customs. The Auburnaires were pretty fun even when he didn't show up. They released a few albums & finally dissolved. The bass player handled their graphics which graced the utility poles of Cincinnati for several years.
A show they played that was pretty cool was a double date with The Raisins at some bar out east of town. It was video taped. If anybody has a copy, feel free to send it.
Most of the band appeared in the movie, Fresh Horses (don't blink).
The Auburnaires will be playing New Years Eve at The Comet.

In it something is. I agree with you, thanks for the help in this question. As always all ingenious is simple.

I was high school friends with the drummer, Joe Fritch. They were super loud. Seemed like they might make it big time for a while there.
