The Balls
Rock Band 1985-1988


The Balls: Mid-October 1985: The Balls performed their first gig at the Jessup Community Center. They were the opening band. (The other bands featured were "Redline", also an un-named band which performed "Heaven and Hell", as well as "Art Ghetto"). The Balls rehearsed only twice during the week preceeding the gig.

Mid-April 1987: The Balls performed their second gig in Eldersburg. They rehearsed 6-8 times prior to the gig. They were "the headliner", following "Three Piece Suit."

June 1988: The Balls (in their original line-up) performed their last gig (a very short 3-4 song set) at the going-away party Jim & Debbie Lascuola threw for Jim Jones and Nina.
