An Old Picture of Silver Laughter’s Ken Wiles and Mick Orton as Double Shot

Double Shot

Double Shot – Ken and Mick

Recently I ran across some old slides that were shot shortly after the breakup of Silver Laughter when Ken and I were about to perform as Double Shot. Though they are somewhat faded after 35 years or so in a box, they still look pretty good. Here is one of them.

I’ll be darned if I know where this was shot, but I think our pal, Glenn Stone, may have taken the photo for us.

Notice the high platform shoes that I started wearing late in the Silver Laughter days so that I could come a little closer to the other tall guys on the stage! Also notice that this was the disco era where polyester was king!
