Nitemates - The Band - 2006

We played the Frat Parties at the University of Washington and high school dances.  Our bass player bought his first amplifier from the bass player of Tiny Tony and the Statics.   Ahhhh, the good old days!
Bob Hamer, June 2002

Some of the other Pacific Northwest music groups represented in members of the Nitemates include Redline, Queen Anne's Wing, The Bishops, and the Christopher Gross Ensemble.
Mike McElhoe, October 2002

The Nitemates evolved into Taxi in the late- 60's and Redline in the mid-80's.

Update: The Nitemates rocked the West Seattle HS Class of ’65 40th reunion, Aug 6th, 2005 along with my good friends Kent Morrill and Buck Ormsby of the Fabulous Wailers.  It was a great party of 225 classmates and spouses.  The Nitemates have played the 20, 25, 30, 35, and 40th WS class of ’65 Reunions, and look forward to many more. A special thanks to Tim Coleman, the newest Nitemate, and formerly of the Bishops and Nomads for his great contribution.
