The Gallery

The Gallery 8 years ago before M15, previously Marque15 in Corona there was a small club that was the test pilot for Marquee15. It was Club 109 or (The Gallery). Fun times.

These really were the best of times as we had many bands of the area play there. It was our own little practice place for our band and venue for concerts. Chris Slade of AC/DC was a friend of Bob Vergura's, our drummer, and used to stop by and play here and there. Sadly it's all gone. M15 is the club today and you can still see some of the theme carried through there with the pictures and art, but there was nothing like those early days in "CLUB 109"

I have noticed several people who have recently looked at this page so I thought it needed some explanation.

The Gallery is a club name that lasted for just a short while. Club 109 was the more common name. It was the idea and finnancial backing of Ben Valenty who I had recently started playing with in a band project. The starter club and prototype to Marquee 15 and now M15 in Corona, it was just off the 91 freeway in Corona. Though I am no longer a part of M15, this first little starter club 109 was the greatest and fun place for private gigs and concerts. Chris Slade from AC/DC and a few other rock celebrities passed through it's doors. I will always remember the place and the good times we had there. The PA was eventually flown next to the lights. Long gone now the pictures are whats left and the memories. I'll see if I can post some of them soon...
