Hi,
I just stumbled upon this board, being a long-time Roches fan. The words "Park Ridge" caught my eye because, although I grew up in Montvale, I went to Our Lady of Mercy Catholic School in Park Ridge and was in Terre's class. Reading your post brought back memories of Maggie and Terre performing something at a school assembly, and even at the time (1965?) I remember it was pretty cool. I was (and am) a musician, and like most of the other kids I was playing, say a Monkees song, but Maggie and Terre were doing much hipper stuff even then, I think they performed a Joan Baez tune or something.
Anyway, I haven't seen them in concert for awhile, and I was glad to see on this board that they may be out this way (I now live in LA), and I'll certainly check out their show.
Thanks for stirring up the ol' memories...
Frank
