The Upjohn Pharmacy, another favorite stop for the quartet. On July 14, 1968 the Dapper
Dans appeared at the Hollywood Bowl during a sold-out "Family Night" concert
featuring Disneyland performers and characters and hosted by Morey Amsterdam. They rode
the bicycle onstage and sang "Ill Always Be Irish" with the Disneyland
Band. Don remembers them frantically riding onstage and having 4 bars of the band's intro
to barely get to their microphones in time. You can see an ad for this concert on the
Scrapbook page. They recorded this song as well as "The Trolley Song" on a Buena
Vista Records album entitled "Strike Up the Disneyland Band" which you can hear
on the Sounds page. |
