I also have an indirect connection to John Cousineau. In 1961, I too was in a Ventures/Johnny and The Hurricanes instrumental band called the Bristols. One of our memorable gigs was Kike Stevens' Point St Charles dance hop. Another was at the Verdun High variety show in our red corduroy jackets.

Our lead guitarist was Len Hurst (later Kulik) who was friends and neighbours with John Cousioneau. Our band also had Doug Mearns on sax and Bob Dickson on drums.
