Found your site today and it blew me away. I can shed a bit of light on your entry for The Idaho Showband, which is shown as "Unknown" -at the time when we were formed just before we set off for England (1966,Never to return) the majority of us were from ,or living in, Belfast. We were formerly known as the Manhatten Showband (also in your list) I have spotted our drummer, Mickey O'Neill, in pictures of The Maurice lynch Showband, before he joined us, and the great Capitol Showband, (After he left us). I was thrilled to see the pictures of our friendly rivals from Lisburn, The Jimmy Johnstone Showband. I would love to get in contact with former members, in particular Trevor Dixon (aka the Singing Milkman, originally from Ballinderry) or Tommy Smith (one time ace trumpeter from Andersonstown) I have listed you in my favourites and will be keeping a close watch!
