Pictures of The Smithereens performance yesterday starting with Mayor Labrosse's introduction and ending with an autograph signing that went on for well over an hour. 

I grabbed the last picture from the Alliance's Facebook page. The post reads:

The Smithereens rocked. Thanks for sharing! A special day in Hackensack yesterday--new northern NJ resident Dave Davies of The Kinks drops in to say hi to The Smithereens. Here he is with Pat Dinizio. (Smithereens swingin' sticksman Dennis Diken in the background.)Dave Davies of "The Kinks" showed up to say hi to the band.

Always liked them....when I started playing in clubs in 1983 they were a semi-regular Dirt Club band (as was I)
Then saw them in 2000 at the Court Tavern in New Brunswick...great voice and terrific songwriter, A very sad passing

I've taken down all of my Canon albums, so this no longer works.

Rather than post a picture that's similar to what's already here, I'm posting one of Pat that I took in 1986 when the Smithereens played the Capitol Theatre in Passaic.
