Any bros here can advise what is the name of the duo who played their music, especially songs by Eagles at Peyton Place, Orchard Towers in the 70s. Used to hang aroung there those days but now forgot their stage name already.

so sorry, i didn't know that. the only western union i can relate to is the money remittance service.

Where is Rita now ?

Heard that she is now a practicing Christian, working in a church, any other news, it is hard to find. Which church, which denomination?..anyone knows?

Sakura Teng is still around, she was in the news some years back..

ha ha ha , now we know, how old you are!! Western Union Band..not Western Union, the remittance service..it was a telegraph company, where one uses to send telex ( this was way before email), & money transfer.

We are talking about Western Union Band...there were bands like, "black dog bones", "pest infested"..& some others that had slipped my mind.
