GUEST,Ski Bum 1968 The McGowan Brothers - Old Celtic Band (81* d) RE: The McGowan Brothers - Old Celtic Band 17 Jan 08


I have a story about the Farquhars. In the summer of 67, I saw the McGowan Brothers several times during " happy hour " at Jerry Lynchs in Belmar, New Jersey. They really rocked the place and used to get everyone going with " Will you still love me when I'm 64 ". In the winter of 67-68, I went to Mount Snow, Vermont for a weekend and ended up staying the season. The most popular place that winter in Wilmington was Fat City with headliners The Fabulous Farquhars. The first time I saw them I thought they looked familar and asked them if they were the McGowan brothers which they replied yes to. They were still doing the ever popular 64 tune plus a hilarious " Rocky Gay " routine. Two years later just by chance my new wife and I went to the Osterville Inn on the Cape. Yes, The Fabulous Farquhars were playing! I still have pictures of them from that night including the infamous " Rocky Gay " routine. I will always remember The Fabulous Farquhars as a very pleasant remembrance.
