    on a side note:
    finished this weekend's reading assignment
    "BEAR: The Life and Times of Augustus Owsley Stanley III"
    highly recommended for even the casual HEAD,
    and perhaps less of the embellishments than Mr. Scully's book

    Why…

    5/16/80 of course!

    Dammit PF, we went and checked out some GK tunes to refresh our old synapses, and now TOO and myself can’t get that GD ear crack from the Breakup song outta our heads ; ) lol

    Why earcrack you say? Because its almost as addictive and damaging as crack!
    Ok, Jerry’s 5/16 High Time might just erase it lol

    Immediately makes me think of the first show “that got away”
    Crotchfester 9/1/79. Greg Kihn and the Goodrats opened.

    I was still only 16 so the rents were not gonna let me go “all the way to Rochester” (that’d have to wait a year) to do anything, let alone go with a bunch of known “drug addicts” lol But I did hear all about it from said DAs, including how the GoodRats gave out these little toy Rats (think Florida Panthers) as a promotion, which of course the unruly east coast Dead Heads, who had had enough warm up noise and wanted the Dead, began pelting the band with the Rats, literally forcing them off the stage!
    “When you go down to deep Elem…the DH will put you on the rocks”
    Now on one hand I’m sure it was hilarious, if you were there, but on the other hand kinda embarrassing. But that was unfortunately often the case when promoters picked poorly. As kind as DH mostly were, we weren’t always polite to openers. Another ugly one I recall was poor Joan Jet opening up for Bobby and the Midnights: booed her off…

    Anyway, 4 winds Greg Khin
