This is a popular 1967/1968 local high school pop band that played the dance venues of the time. The group featured, left to right, Jerry Bucciarelli (singer), Danny McGibbeny (drums), Mickey White (keyboards), Joey Moreno (guitar) and Ronnie "Face" Adamese (guitar). Although the band never made it big, three of the members went on to stake their own individual claim to fame. Jerry Bucciarelli gained daytime soap opera fame as the villain Marco Dane from 1977 through 1993 on "One Life To Live" and "General Hospital". In 1993 he won an Emmy Award for Best Supporting Actor. Jerry also acted on Broadway and appeared in several primetime TV dramas over the years before his passing in 2004. Danny McGibbeny moved on to a career in professional tennis management with the Pittsburgh Triangles of World Team Tennis before his death in 1977. Mickey White has spent a career in professional baseball as a talent scout and, from 1998 through 2002, was the Director of Scouting for the Pittsburgh Pirates. Among his many discoveries, Mickey is responsible for the signing of All-Star sluggers Manny Ramirez and Jose Bautista.
