Jem Sollinger ’88, Peter Doolittle ’88 Rock Dunville’s

Nearly 40 years after winning a wiffleball contest — with the prize of an hour of air time on Staples radio station WWPT — G & the Bones reunited last night.

With Staples Class of 1988 musicians Peter Doolittle, Jem Sollinger and Will O’Toole reuniting from as near as Weston and as far as Idaho, the band rocked Little Pub  @ Dunville’s. The crowd included old friends, and others who had no idea of the back story.

Doolittle and Sollinger were teammates on Staples’ 1987 FCIAC championship team. Sollinger is now the president of the Staples Boys Soccer Foundation, and owns and directs Camp Laurel in Maine. Doolittle is in cybersecurity, and lives in Weston, Massachusetts.
