When most of us think of the 1950s, we think of rock 'n' roll, greasers, hot rods, Elvis, Annette, Fabian, D.A., haircuts and teenage rebellion. But there was a flip side to this era - the side of harmony, innocence and the sincerity of dreams. It was a time when most parents and kids listened and danced to the same music; when families partook of the ritual of gathering in front of the TV to watch their favorite variety shows, like "The Ed Sullivan Show" or "The Perry Como Show." It was a time when every family worked to fulfill the American Dream. This is the story of such a time - as told through the magical harmonies of Forever Plaid.
Once upon a time, there were four guys - Sparky, Smudge, Jinx and Frankie - who loved to sing. En route to pick up their custom-made tuxedos, they were broadsided by a school bus filled with eager Catholic teens. The teens were on their way to witness the Beatles make their U.S. television debut on "The Ed Sullivan Show" and miraculously escaped uninjured. It is at that moment, when their lives and careers ended, that the story of Forever Plaid begins. Through the Power of Harmony and the Expanding Holes in the Ozone Layer, in conjunction with the positions of the planets and all that astrotechnical stuff, Forever Plaid is allowed to come back to perform the show they never got to do in life. We invite you to join in this celebration of their lives as we take you back to a time when we listened to the power of our dreams through music.
