Blast From The Past



Being somewhat of a history buff, I have uncovered a rare photograph. At first glance, one would surmise this is a picture of the "Fab Four" (The Beatles). However upon closer inspection, I believe it is a photo of the trend setting quartet from 600 South in St. George, Utah. Always on the cutting edge, these hunks pushed every fashion envelope known to man. Apparently Ben and Curtis were seeking the spray paint look with the jeans. They bring a whole new meaning to the word "tight". Doug was still hung up on Buddy Holly, and sought to keep his memory alive with his cool glasses. Steve was the first to introduce the world to red socks. He was later quoted as saying, "it drives the girls crazy"! Not to be outdone, Curtis went for brighter socks and higher pants. Asked for his reason for the floods, he was quoted as saying, "Summer is right around the corner, and these babies can double for shorts"! He also mentioned that wearing dress shoes with spray paint floods are a great babe magnet. No wonder St. George is often recognized as the fashion capital of the world. George and Carma, struggled in those days to beat the girls back from attacking their sons, as the "Fashion Four" were pure studs. How could they not be with clothes and hair do's like that??? Being the ring leader, Ben had to wear a lighter shade of blue to set him apart. The other three were mere window dressing.... Notice the care given to the lawn chairs. lol
