"LIVE" AT QUEENSTOWN
Singapore's 1960s pop stalwart Vernon Cornelius is set to regale fans with songs by his old band The Quests, one of the country's most successful bands from that decade. The two nights of free concerts in the Queenstown heartland will be a homecoming gig of sorts. The Quests were named after the magazine of what was then known as Queenstown Secondary Technical School, where two of the band's founding members studied.
