Well here goes...
It started back in the early 80's when 5 couples rented a beach house in Seabrook, NH for 2 weeks. Everyone had duties and I was voted "Entertainment Committee".

Being A LOT younger at the time we all had brought bicycles to peruse the beach and get exercise during the day. Hopping on my trusty 10 speed, I pedaled over the bridge into Hampton Beach to the Casino Ballroom and found I had 2 choices for the weeks we were there. Eddie Money or The Fools opening for SSJ & the Jukes. I had heard of the Jukes but more of the Fools. So the Jukes it was! I'm thinking it was right around the debut of 'In The Heat' cause they played "New Romeo" and really rocked the joint. Ever since I have made the trek to the Casino every Labor Day weekend to get my "Fix." I must admit I missed a few shows and a few years they didn't show but as of the last 10 years the record is VERY good. On a final note, I was all set to make the ride to NJ for Jukestock when a scheduling conflict cancelled the plan. You'd think my daughter coulda been "Comfirmed" on another weekend...Yeesh!

South, Thank you for the many hours of enjoyment of your shows and music, as they are one of the last "Pure" forms of entertainment that's left, compared to what radio is feeding us now.

A loyal fan always,
George Steele
