Frank wrote, "I had a band the American Tragedy out of Philadelphia from 1965 to '68. We played all the hops and were in the Battle of the Bands and came in 2nd. I went on from there to form a group called Valentine with John Oates.

"Also the Hangmen are from Maryland, I'm from there as well. I saw them open for the Lovin' Spoonful at the Shady Grove Music Fair, Rockville MD in 1965."
