Five piece rock band playing the Halloween Canteen at Mike Harvey's school.

Their single gag/appearance: Mike, on the Canteen Committee, approaches the band in full swing, only to have the saxophonist admonish him: "We are playing 'Good Night Ladies' man. We've been playing it for fifteen minutes."

Mike previously formed his own band, The Blast Offs.

From the single panel cartoon It's All in the Family about the Harvey family, by the Berenstains ran from 1956 to 1989 in McCall's and Good Housekeeping.

It was compiled into some books including Never Trust Anyone Over 13 (1970, Bantam).
