Someday, I hope to put up a thorough list of all the bands associated with the warehouse, and the bands that they spawned and the bands that all of the members of those bands played in either before or after the halcyon days of the late sixties. But until then, here's what I could remember. Your additions and correction are welcomed.

Band 1 – Dust

The original warehouse band, circa 1968.

"John Taylor, MA, CASAC (523-8285) is the Director of Evaluation Services [at  the Smithers Center of St. Luke's Roosevelt Hospital]. John not only knows how everything works (or should work) at Smithers, he also has an impressive fund of knowledge regarding other addiction and related services. John can help you decide how best to access Smithers for a particular patient, or help you find another more appropriate resource." [From Dr. Alexander DeLuca's website. Apparently John stayed on after DeLuca resigned in 2000.]

[Nos 1-16-04:] He's the brother of Joan Penderell Taylor and Ellen Taylor, both of California

From Steve Cohn 6/15/03: "I have been seaching on the web for a couple of childhood friends who I played in a band with when we were teenagers, Louie and Phil Ramundo. The band was the "Corvairs."  I noticed their names on the Bands page on your website. Do you know how I could contact them or do you have any information about them at all?"

From John Lehmann-Haupt 3/29/03: "I stumbled across your site searching for Lou Ramundo (Raimundo?), a very talented guy; I was hoping to find out what had become of him. A little peripheral info that may or may not be of interest: I played guitar behind Lou in a short-lived band in the summer of 1967 that also included John Taylor as vocalist and leader, John Cotton on bass, and John Velez on drums. I think our name was Milkweed; we only did one gig, a debutante party in Atlanta, GA that was booked by a management outfit (Elan Associates) that was a holdover from a previous band of John Taylor's (which I think also included Lou, and his brother Phil on bass). We had a rather impressive light show by Rudi Stern, also a holdover from the earlier band."

Band 2 – Stud and the Brass Knuckles

Note from Deven 5/23/99: I may be mistaken, but I seem to recall that at the only Stud & The Brass Knuckles gig I can remember (was there more than one ?), the one at the girl's home where just as we broke into our rousing rendition of "Karma Kustard" (or was is "Wassail In The Oven"?) I noticed the nuns all over the joint, Martin Mosbacher was a vocalist.

Nos responds: I think he performed with us somewhere, but I can't remember where or when. For that matter, I'm not sure which of the bands I was in actually got to perform at CBGB's. I also seem to recall being in a band with Finley Hunt III and Danny Ramirez. Bob Ullmann might also have been in one of these bands, but it's kind of a blur now.

Kathie says: Chuckie Solomon played with us at a benefit at the warehouse.

Email from KN 7-14-99: I was just looking at the band page and thought i’d mention some of our fabulous non-paying gigs (always the best kind—art for art’s sake!!!). We played the Hey, Brother! Cafe more than once. I guess we were sort of the house band. [Nos says: I didn't remember so many gigs there] Was that the first one where they paid us in soul food—ribs, candied yams, etc.? I still can’t believe the guy running it, Rev. Matt Jones, let us sing those slightly raunchy songs. Maybe he wasn’t a real minister, but just one of those guys who sticks "Rev." in front of his name. He was nice to us --- that’s all i know. [Nos says: Mat was a sweetie. I ran into him in the late '80's on the West Side. He was a naturopath, nutritional consultant and specialist in colonic irrigations.] What happened to Fred Kirkpatrick? Is he still around? [Nos says: He passed away, prob. in the early '80's. I wonder what a web search on "Rev. Frederick Douglas Kirkpatrick would turn up.] Then there was another HB gig where there was an English guy who dug Franne (she prob. remembers). And the one where a maybe 16-yr-old Latino guy asked me to go out and smoke pot with him and his friends (i don’t remember if i did). Wild, wacky times!!!!! I remember the reform school gig deven mentioned. Wasn’t that the one where you and Franne carried some disagreement onstage and one or both of you walked off in the middle of the show? [Nos says: I wouldn't do such a thing. I'm much too even tempered.] Those were the days!!! Then there was the FDR-WW gig w. Chuck. I remember doing "I’m Speeding on You" (and the words are still meaningful today!!). I don’t know mm’s E address, so i’m saying hi to him here. I remember when we went to the moonwalk show in CP w. R. Power and Sherry. You were the first guy i had falafel with. I’ll never forget it!!!!
