Thanks for reminding me! I remember that time, too! Our son was a local rock star and I helped with the band's "on-stage" appearances and "costume" changes. Vests that actually matched their pants were favorites back in the 60's-70's. In this day and age, band members dress like bums.

Great concert, loud and lively, and we camped out on a blanket on the crowded ground. When one of their songs abruptly stopped, I was in the middle of shouting to my son "What's that strange smell" ???? I received some very stern looks from those sitting around us. Just as bad was my later question to my son "Which one is Duane" (who died in a motorcycle accident a few years before.
