3. Speaking of music, Loco, you bastard. The other day you posted a Reel Big Fish video and since then I have wasted way too much time on youtube listening to all their other shit. Nice find.

   I’ve said it before, the 70s produced the greatest music ever. I was pretty young but my best friend had 2 older brothers that were musicians and got us into some great live concerts. What an education.

4. Hey. I like the best band I ever saw live thing. Best band I ever saw live. The Outlaws at the Cow Palace. They were opening for, ELO. Go figure. Outlaws blew them away. Remembering back, 38 Special played that night too.

6. All good songs.

   Midnight Special and Don Kirshner’s Rock Concert for the win. Picking up the new TV Guide each week at the grocery store to see who was on.

10. My favorite live rockers were Johnny Winter, alone or with Edgar; and Alvin Lee and Ten Years After. I saw each of them many times in the early 70s.

11. The problem with Johnny and Edgar Winters was that they couldn’t get along with each other.
    It’s really too bad because they were great when they did get along.
