Stix from the Penetrators posted 3 videos I've never seen before. Not the best quality but great historical artifacts!

I was at that Cumberland Mall show and you are right, the acoustics were, well, maybe not as bad as the Egyptian Ball room in the Fox Theater, (an all marble rectangle with a domed marble ceiling), but close.
I remember the Penetrators shooting videos of a lot of their performances. There must be a secret S3 stash of them.

I was there as well, what an epic time it was for local Atlanta surf music back in those days.
EK, do you remember what year that video was shot?

Gee Woody, I'm not sure. But I vaguely remember Stix telling me that for a brief time, they were promoting a fashion line, and maybe did a couple of the mall concerts as part of that effort.
We'll have to "interrogate" him at the Star Bar next week.
I remember the Astronauts' shows in Atlanta in June '65 were part of a fashion promotion.........
