The Wolverines. They ended up losing the Casino
Gardens job because they just didn't sway the dinner
crowd. The college kids loved them, but only came on
weekends. Imagine paying the $1 admission, and getting
to hear the Wolverines! The above ad is from an I.U.
dance.

Wild Bill Davison was in this band. And that's when
he met Bix.

DID YOU KNOW?
That all of the Wolverines
arrangments and harmonies
were worked out by Bix? He
would work his ideas out on
the piano, and would give
each guy his note to play. It
sounds like hard work, but the
band actually had fun doing it
this way! A good example
would be the harmony breaks
on "Royal Garden Blues." He
had the front line playing
together instead of each
taking a break as most bands
do.
This was Bix's idea, and his
ideas made that band the
heroes of almost every
college band in the country!

At one time it was written that Bix was mentioned
in the press only twice during his lifetime. He
seems to pop up quite a bit .

A "Sock Artist", I like
that! The sad truth is
that if Bix took off his
socks, there would be
no prom. Perhaps no
University.

Why, if Dick Voynow had been buying Kazoo Lips Rare
Jazz Cd's....never mind. I just can't do it.

OK boys. They don't like our Six Brown Brothers medley. The nylons,
gum and autographed photo of Leo Gorcey didn't work either. Let's
offer them a couple of Kazoo Lips CD's!
(That's a little better...but not much.)
