Fairhaven High School Class of 1976

Random photos of our past.

Finding an envelope with B&W negatives on an excursion to dear old Mom's house in Fairhaven, recently acquired these photos of FHS garage band Steel Image taken by the band and Huttlestonian year book photographer Mike Hartigan. Mike was the only official photographer from inception in 1971 to the bands demise in 1975. Kent Hakanson had already left the band when these were taken. Though the band officially broke up in 1975, original members continued to perform in area with other bands.

Robbie Hodges drummng away as usual. Serious side to Dave Farias, just be glad he isn't singing!

How it all got started, jamming in the basement sometime in 1970, Robert Hodges doing what he did best and the original band had Classmate Ray Galary on drums and Jimmie Farney playing guitar (1970), Ray and Jim dropped out, Robbie Hodges replaced Ray and Kent was with the group from day one, Kent played some bass and did our light shows, sound checks and lugged equipment, photo taken April 1971 at the San Antonio Club steps.

A old familar standby, Boone's Farm Apple wine, selection of choice back in summer 1975
