Keen Elvis fan Vic Keeler fronted this group in the guise of Mark Preston his early nom de plume. The group had played the Grosvenor Ballroom backing Johnny Kidd & The Pirates the week before the Beatles appeared there. The band kept on vending until early 1963 but folded when Mike Brighton moved on to revive flagging local band The Falcons
Supports: Johnny Kidd & The Pirates / Shane Fenton & The Fentones / Les Alan & The Sceptres
