Less Talk and More Rock! Rock music was epitomized with Elvis and the Beatles. It found a solid place in the lives of teenagers. Music ia a big part of the HHS students after school life. Students have equipped their cars with AM-FM radios, 8- track and cassette stereo tape decks, and hi-fi speakers. The radio stations most listened to are KO, the first Twin Cities al- bum rock station, and KlOl, which seems to be more popu- lar. The best way to really enjoy rock music is to hear it being played in concert. Jerseys are of- ten seen around school the day after the concert, proclaiming the name of a favorite group. According to a poll taken in school, the favorite is REO Speedwagon, with ACXDC and Lynyrd Skynyrd coming in a dis- tant second and third. w l 1 I l TICKET STUBS and album covers are color- ful. What do they make you think of? Con- certs and excellent music! THUMBS UP AND SOCKS OFF for Rock 'n Roll! This is a sample of the graffiti on the walls of the dungeon where the band Eyes practiced. f -. We MW- f f,,,wf,-,W-mqff-ww,1nw.:mag.wfWfwQf11:f-nw

Nighthawk's was formed about five years ago under the name of Chain Reaction. For the first couple of years the band mem- bers were drummer Craig Kieffer, lead guitarist Dave Wes- ley and bass guitarist Jim Carlson. The last three years, they have performed under the name of Nighthawk. Keyboard player, Steve Fluegel joined the band about the time of the name change. They've come along way from their early days. Last summer a Florida based production com- pany became interested in a song written by Wesley and Carlson called l'Weekend Lover. With a few more original mu- sic compositions, Nighthawks could possibly record an album. Until then, the band plans to keep busy. A trip to Florida as a warm-up act for a feature band may take place. But when fall comes around they plan to split up for awhile to attend college. That is-if they don't hit it big in Florida. AT THE Ground Round, during a Snow Week, Nighthawk entertained the students throughout the evening. Pictured 'are Dave Wesley, Hob Hanson, CraigfKietter fon drumsj, lim Carlson, and Steve Fhiegel.
