Parousia played the Sundown Saloon on Route 16 in Chaffee, NY twice in 1982, January 7th and again on March 19th. Although a bit of a trek from Buffalo to Chaffee, the Sundowner featured many of the better, more popular bands in the club scene of that time. We were no strangers to Chafee having performed at another Chafee venue, the Brush Gardens back in 1979.
