The Eighties

The Old Fashioners in a specially decorated room 1 of de Nieuwe Doelen on 5 maart 1981.

In these years people were joining and leaving the band as a matter of course. Ferry Kouwenhoven stopped drumming in 1980, and was replaced by Henk Kluppel. In February of that year, Edward Visser was replaced by Henk Asma. A great addition to the band was "good-old" Jaap -Jack- Ham. He joined the band on March 14, 1981, as 'unpaid guest musician'.
