Palm Springs Air Museum Holds<br />
Always looking for ways to engage new<br />
audiences, the Palm Springs Air Museum<br />
is holding its first ever MASH BASH, a<br />
MASH-themed party with live music, food,<br />
and a no-host bar on Saturday, March 24,<br />
from 6pm to 10pm.<br />
Families are welcome; just make sure that all<br />
youngsters age 20 and younger are accompanied<br />
by adults age 21 or older. Friendly pets on leash<br />
are also welcome. General admission is $49 per<br />
person; and $39 for Palm Springs Air Museum<br />
members. Admission includes the live music and<br />
food. The bar is no host.<br />
Aircraft from the Korea and Vietnam eras<br />
will be on display inside the Miles Hangar,<br />
and there will even be a MASH tent. Perhaps<br />
some will even come dressed as MASH doctors<br />
and nurses.<br />
ANONYMOUS 5<br />
Live entertainment is by Anonymous 5. The<br />
Anonymous 5 dates back to 1965 when some<br />
Southern California high school friends, after<br />
watching the Beatles and the Rolling Stones on<br />
Ed Sullivan, decided to form a rock and roll<br />
band. Of the original five, the three original<br />
band members still performing are Kerry Hagney<br />
on guitar, Vince Mercurio on bass guitar,<br />
and Gary Marzolino also on guitar.<br />
A year later, 1966, Stan Stokes joined the<br />
band as the keyboard player and is still in the<br />
band. In later years, the band was joined by<br />
Vinney Mastrosimone on drums, Bob Gongwer<br />
on guitar, Jan Maletz on guitar and vocals and<br />
Jennifer Maletz on vocals. The band plays rock<br />
and roll from the 1960’s and 70’s along with a<br />
bit of everything else.<br />
THE PALM SPRINGS AIR MUSEUM<br />
The Palm Springs Air Museum is an educational<br />
non-profit organization, with over 59<br />
flying and static aircraft on display. Included<br />
in the four hangars of 86,000 square feet of<br />
climate controlled hangar space are exhibits<br />
detailing events from World War II, the Korea<br />
and Vietnam conflicts.<br />
The hangars are themed, and divided into<br />
the B-17 hangar, the European / Army Hangar,<br />
the Pacific / Navy hangar, and the newest<br />
