It all began in Hinsdale, Illinois with a band called "The Travelers." Comprised of Tom Doody (Toad), Gerry Stone (Stonehenge), Dave Purple (Grape) from the Prowlers, Denny Conroy and Jim Fairs from the Roosters, and Jim Pilster (J.C. Hooke), the band later changed its name to The Cryan' Shames in 1966. J.C. Hooke was responsible for naming the group because of the problem they had coming up with a name ... "being a Cryan' Shame."
