Once upon a time in Liverpool a group of lads called Herman and the Hermits did the Mashed Potato. Luckily there is no footage of our footage,
and only Vance Brescia could still do it until his recent bout of Neasles.
Say hello to Lifetime fan club member JILL CARROLL who got to come backstage here at the Snoqualmie Casino in Washington.

Does Herman’s Hermits have a brick at the Cavern Club?
Yes they do Cathy Sam Korosi took a picture of it when she and her family took a trip to the UK last year.
Hello Peter,
Who’d a thunk, back when I was a Southern Calif. 13 year old, in ’64 (and British music maniac), I’d be looking forward to attending your upcoming concert in Georgia in 2012??? Being a recent transplant here, I find myself truly longing for a bit of California sunshine, albeit with an English accent (and having spent my fair share of time working for LA record companies in the 70s/80s, I’m aware there are quite a few transplanted Brits in Calif). By the way, congratulations on aging so gracefully, with self-depreciating wit and charm and please continue to add your voice to PBS concert series.
The Snoqualmie concert was a one of the best shows ever!! Lots of energy and just “good ol’ fun” as only Peter Noone can do it!
Thank you, Peter for the picture. After 43 years, I finally got a picture with
you!!!

Hi, I hope everyone takes care while on tour. I for one am looking forward to seeing all of you again when you come to Canada. You guys are the best!!!
Looks like it was a Knees Up!
Great time last night, Peter, you take care of yourself on this World tour you are taking. You did a wonderful concert and everyone seemed to enjoy it. I was sitting next to a lady that had never been to one of your entertaining concerts. She was singing her heart out!! Can’t wait til you are back in the NW again. Love ya
Hello Jill and Peter,
Wow, this makes me want to become a lifer. What would you do if you got someone weird and creepy back there? ha ha
What an awesome picture of You and Jill. Can you do the Mash Potato Dance tonight in Merrillville?
Congrats, Jill! Nice pic!
Very awesome, can’t wait to go backstage tommorow night!
Mashed potato, hmm? How do we know that’s not the Waaa-wa–a-Watusi you’re doing?
Vance Brescia is the bee’s knees around here and we’re waiting patiently for him to hurry up and get back! Have fun playing all the songs that are rightfully and legally yours!!!!
Looks like the Hermits are having a great time dancing the mashed potato!
Thanks for sharing this awesome picture with us!
Enjoy your first celebratory concert. :)
I’ve been to the Cavern since as a tourist, but I sure wish that I could have been there to see you all doing the Mash Potato back in the day!!!<3
Welcome back to the Great Northwest! Maybe you guys could demonstrate a little Mashed Potato or Boogaloo tonight at Snoqualmie? ;-) Can’t wait – see ya tonight!!!!!!
Oh Happy Day for you,
