Beach Music Pictures Bio

I finished high school in 1962. I always loved music and always provided music for all the parties among my friends. I will always remember going to the beach and fast dancing at the Pad. Fast dancing, that's what it was called before it became the Shag. Sometime we would go the the Play House Grill at Cresent Beach and dance on the patio. You could always find a house party to go to at OD. We all new what the B29 was. How many of you beach music lovers & shaggers no what the B29 was. Every body wanted the B29. We would get a permit from the city and have a bond fire at the dead end at Cherrygrove. You could even walk down the street with a beer in your hand. Oh!! the good old days before all the laws that stopped a lot of the fun at the Beach. I remember the Old Beach Club on Hwy 17. One dollar to get in and a milkshake cup full of beer was 25 cent. All the National acts played there weekly. One dollar to see National acts & 25 cent beer, what a deal.

In 1976 I started an annual party and named it "Night Of The Turkey" which is a registered trade mark. The party, always held on Thanksgiving Eve became something that people from miles around looked forward to every year. Depending on the location it was always sold out with crowds of 500 to a 1000 people lined up to attend. The Fantastic Shakers, The Entertainers, The Kays, Breeze Band an several other bands thru the years have provided the music. Mitch Harb's Mobile DJ Show as well as Chad Sain, Johnny Barkley and several other DJ's have been guest DJ. 2009 will mark the 34th year of "Night Of The Turkey". Details of this years party will be made public in October 2009. Thanks for all the support from all you "TURKEY HEADS" from "THE BIG TURKEY".

I grew up working for my dad at Harb Tire Service. In 1983 I left Harb Tire an opened my own business, Mitch Harb's Discount Tire Sales on Old Hwy 52 & 8 in Lexington NC. We specialize in new tires & mag wheels an have a large inventory with a wide variety of brands & sizes. If we don't have what you want we will be glad to special order for you.

I am a North Carolina Tarheel Basketball fan & an avid Nascar & Dale Earnhardt Jr fan.
