Halloween '79

Post by Whipper »

Just came across this great photo of Randy and Jody from Halloween 1979 that I'd never seen before. It was in Rhoads to Ozz's collection on FB. Jody dressed up as Randy, with a cardboard cutout PDV, and Randy dressed up as Kevin Dubrow with striped shirt and dark curly hair wig! A very cool insight into his personality, and the fun couple that they were. I just love this shot!!

Yeah, I'm not sure what the deal was with the white face paint. I suppose because Kevin sort of resembled a mime with the black and white striped shirt, so Randy played upon that?

a bit of irrelevant trivia...(seems to be my forte)...randy and kathy would have guitar lessons at musonia on friday nights. afterward, delores would treat them to dinner at a mexican restaurant in burbank. that would be 'granadas' mexican restaurant. it's no longer there.

Whoa! I lived in L.A. thru the 80's and 90's, and I've eaten there MANY times! I remember they had a HUGE margarita called the UFO or flying saucer that was big enough for 4 people. It took up the whole table!
Thanks Frank!

Thanks for posting that. Very cool photo. It's very difficult to tell that is Randy.

:wink: Of course Frank, since you visit Burbank so often you would know that Granada is still well and alive. Not gone at all, since my last visit was a week ago with friends. But again, I am in Burbank and the valley often, old digs as it may be. Still have the best Margaritas in the valley. I'm betting halorising has been there too. But apparently not you lately.............Old haunts bring up very good memories.............. :wink: :fish:

are you sure about this? we're in burbank often enough as my mom still lives there. we were there last weekend for a belated birthday visit with delores rhoads. my wife saw a 'for lease' sign in the window and my mom just confirmed granadas has been closed for 6 months. what's your game anyway?

No game, as you had put so many times before, "Randy had blue eyes, and Naturally blonde hair". Not a chance Frank, Randy had brown eyes and auburn brown hair naturally, and as well, Granada is still open for business, not open today because it is Sunday, but love the place as it brings back many fond memories, but of course you would not remember those...... What's your game Frank ? :roll: :fish:
