augural Ball in honor of Governor
Thomas R. Carper and Lieutenant
Governor Ruth Ann Minner on
Tuesday, Jan. 21 at the Sheraton
Conference Center in Dover.
Tickets for the event, priced at
$25 each, may be obtained in ad-

Inaugural '97 Committee and
mailed to the Department of State;
Townsend Building, Dover, DE

Formed in New York City, the
Funsters began as a one-man band
that grew to three members, in-
cluding current guitarist Greg
Mack, his brother Keith Mack,
and drummer Ed Shockley. The
ensemble then expanded to add a
horn section to include a total of
seven members, and then eventu-
ally as many as nine.
The current ensemble is made
up of members from three bands,
including the Jack of Diamonds,
Ace Day and Kick Back. Mem-
bers of the Funsters include gui-
tarist Greg Mack, keyboardist
Tom Houska, drummer Ed Shock-
Icy, bassist Dickie Messick, saxist
and guitarist Ken Tonge, saxist
and guitarist Grier White and
trumpet player John Flecther.
Mack said membership in the
band still changes from time to
time, depending on who wants to
play at what gig. Occasionally, he
said, other members - including
guitarist Keith Mack, drummer
Mike Shockley, and keyboardist
Kenny Martin - will join the
group.
The Funsters cover rock and roll
music from the 60s and 70s, and
most recently played at The Rose
and Crown in Lewes on New
Year's Eve. Mack said the Fun-
sters are also planning a benefit
concert for the Lewe Little
League on Saturday, Feb. 8, from
Beach. The event is sponsored by
the Friends of Lewes Baseball.
Tickets are $10 in advance, and
$12 at the door. To order tickets
in advance, call 645-7060
evenings.
The Funsters are one half of the
entertainment planned for the
gala. The big band sounds of the
Bob Wagner orchestra will also be
highlighted at the affair. Dress for
the ball is black tie optional. The
ball will be the finale to a week of
Funsters t perform at Carper's inaugural --/
