Paul Revere and the Raiders

[schsa]

Ok, so you have to be as old as I am to remember them. They are playing at our local county fair. I was just thinking that I remember that they were old when I was little. So does that mean that they are now in the 60's and still playing the same songs?

Wonder if Dick Clark will appear out of the background??

I remember them too. I guess they would be in their 60's right now.

I remember them too. I guess they would be in their 60's right now.

If not 60's they'd be in their late 50's.

When they were just getting really famous the Paul Revere guy was in the guards in my home town. so they were pretty young then. Probably late fifties now. I thought the lead singer, Mark something, was sooooo hot! If you see them let all us old fogeys know how they look.

I love the song "Indian Reservation"!

I did a search & I found this dated 2000:

Paul Revere & The Raiders
45 Years & Still Rockin'

Paul Revere & The Raiders are celebrating an anniversary that few music acts can even dream about... 45 years of non-stop rockin' n' rollin' to dedicated fans of all ages.

During their career, Paul Revere & The Raiders have had hit records on the Billboard charts, starred on national television and played to enthusiastic audiences all across the country.

"I started this group 45 years ago for the fun of it," says Paul, "and I'm not gonna quit until I stop having fun."

If you have ever been to one of Paul Revere & The Raider's live performances, you quickly realize they know how to have a good time. The Raiders belt out great songs from the 60's with never ending energy while Paul Revere keeps the audience howling with his side splitting stage antics.

The sixty five year old rock & roller has no thoughts about slowing down anytime soon. He established an internet site on the world wide web and plans to play about 100 rock n' roll shows this year.

In addition to their busy touring schedule, Paul Revere & The Raiders and Rhino Special Productions have released, "Ride To The Wall" with all net proceeds from the sale of this CD being donated to the Ride To The Wall Foundation, a non-profit organization making funds available to various approved veteran's outreach programs.
