Nov. 1978 Gil Pini turns 22 later at midnight. He and I were left there stranded and we walked until we found our way back to the hotel from there. lol
Mosh Pitt was was invented here! Most fun I ever had driving an hour to go see the Boyzz play at Beginnings in Schaumburg and amazingly making it home safely after drinking Old No. 7 all night! Lord have mercy, greatest rock & roll band ever to see the light of day!
Do you guys remember that really cool white shirt Dan use to wear in so many of his concerts ? He gave it to my husband Tony and he wore it in our wedding. If I come across it, I’ll take a picture of it. We really loved going to see the Boyzz. There hasn’t been anyone else like them , and we sure miss them.
This was from a series called Live From The Agora Ballroom. It used to air every Friday night after the 11:00 news in Cleveland Ohio. At the time i was 13 and i couldn't wait for Friday nights to bring killer performances by the likes of The Boyzz, Eddie Money, and The Charlie Daniels Band among others.
I have a story for you that I’m sure you haven’t heard of before… my friend Dena and I went downtown St Charles to a closed down gas station where the Boyzz use to practice on Main Street close to the catholic chapel in town. We were there talking to Dan and he asked us if we could go to his /grandmas house where he lived to pick up the box of tee shirts. Well, the front and the back door was locked and no one was home but we found an open window in the back, so we went through it. Next time we knew was some sounds from outside and we looked out the window and saw that there was police all around the house. We went out through the window we came in, with the box of tee shirts and the police were there to see what we were doing there. The good thing was that it was a small enough town still and we told them Dan had us go to get the shirts. Well , they knew the Boyzz well and they let us go , after they talked to Dan . He just laughed at what happened and all was good, but I tell you it scared the crap out of us.
So much better doing this kind of Deep Purple stuff than some of the other boogie woogie things on the debut album. Used to teach at the same guitar store Mike Tafoya did--he was a huge early influence on me. Great player.
Seeing that belt you have on Dirt...Long story with you and I about that belt Huh?? By the way what ever happened to JUDY who was in the front row with us always any body know ???
One of my first concert The Boyzz from Illinois playing with Pat Travers in late 70's

Wow I remember beginnings. I saw them open for Judas priest at Rosemont
Love this band!
I lived in Wheaton late 70’s into early 80’s. The Boyzz rocked many a club in the western burbs. Good times rocking hard all night long!

Singer's voice in this reminds one of Moxy's Buzz Shearman.

The total opposite of the 1979 clusterfuck at the Crocker Theater in Elgin.
