Plus--true fact--if you had a Dynaflex LP, you could bend it into a convex shape, and they would just snap back. Fun to do. Don't try it with non-Dynaflex LPs.

I heard it about 1973, I couldn’t believe that a record this good hadn’t been released. RAH created my unshakable belief that every vault has it’s golden uncirculated tape.

Ok I take it back-I read the book, which was called Flowers For Algernon, and the movie was called Charlie.

Flowers For AI (just to age myself, I actually read the book, which was called something else—Charlie?)

I was in a now long-gone Berkeley pizza joint (Kip's on Durant and Telegraph), watching the Patriots game in one of the first big screens in town.

Could this be like a Star Trek episode, the one where Spock is evil, and it’s an Alternate Universe Warriors team?

A few years later I met someone who’d actually been in the band when it was called Rubber Duck (bassist Tom Glass), but even he had no idea that a record had ultimately been made.

No one knew about it. I found my copy in the 50cent bin in Rasputins Records in Berkeley about 1980. I was startled to see TC in the credits. No one I knew had ever heard of it.

Fito Parra standing tall, now in his 58th year as Canned Heat’s drummer (1967-current).

I can’t top Paula, but I saw the with The Bear (and Fito) at Chet Helms’ Tribal Stomp, Oct 1 78, and they killed it.

A very strange weekend indeed. On Friday June 6 Wayne Ceballos (AUM) played the first six numbers on Garcia’s rig. On Sunday June 8 there was too much juice in the apple juice, and Ceballos and Elvin Bisop covered for Jerry in the second set.

The business model is English and European soccer, which I believe followed a similar arc (I am no expert). What was initially clubs all over a country supported by their local fans became the playground of a few behemoths (Man U, Bayern Munich, PSG etc).

They were English, but not rockets. Acoustic trio. Had a hit with an aCapella version of Neill Young’s After The Gold Rush

When I got a job in Manhattan, then a naive West Coaster, a kindly local explained "there are no stupid questions, just stupid people."

The Oceanside Blade-Tribune was on the case. From the July 19 edition, 90 arrested, 100 injured. Good times!

#PeterFrampton seems to have first visited Nashville when he headlined at the Fairgrounds Speedway on July 4 1976. He lives in Nashville now, and his plaque is on the Music City Walk Of Fame (121 S 4th st), where it belongs.

Phil Lesh's famously attributed remark (which he apparently never said) was that "Dark Star is always playing--and sometimes we get to hear it." Maybe the corollary is that the Velvet Underground is always playing, and sometimes we got to hear them.

I checked my notes. I actually attended this show. I really only recall Big Boy Pete. This was about two shows before I went Emeritus and basically retired from seeing Dead shows.
