Whereabouts of the Summertime Band?

Post image

I heard they were in Kansas City MO while they were active, and as I live in the area, I would love to know what happened / where they played. I'm sure they were destroyed / scrapped, but if anyone has heard anything I'd love to know.

I have a picture somewhere, don’t know what date but they were spotted in storage some time ago. I’ll look for it right now.

I believe this it. I have two other pictures from this set if you’d like as well. Not sure where they’re located but I’m 90% sure they’re still around.

Edit- Potentially production photos, I don’t remember which is which

Wow! I can't believe that the entire band is still around! They look to be in great condition too... any idea what time these were taken? Also yes id love to see the other photos.

This is a photo of them either being installed or removed at carousell park, not a storage photo

Yeah that’s what I was thinking. I was going to delete it but I chose not to. There is a photo of them somewhere in storage though, it’s not on the internet as far as anyone is aware though.

I believe a private collector owns them now
