Perfect.
...this is part of my collection of miniature poster/postcards form the Fillmore West from 1967 to 1969. I don't know what they cost.
Hey Larry,
When will you hire an archivist. At this point in time your ephemera needs real protection and processing. But then again, maybe you are well into doing exactly that.
the stories go poof and the pix and stuff go into my son's garage I imagine. The music? Who knows, my son is not interested in LPs or CDs and the Mrs has it all on hard drives....
Some pix the Mrs will keep....
The big worry is how to get the grin off my dead ass, it has been fun!
It is hard to relate to how things have changed in terms of income. My first full time job out of college paid $550 a month in 1967. I remember most of the big concerts were $5 or under.
I saw ELP about '74 during the 'Brain Salad Surgery' tour, and it was a whopping $7!
I think I saw them on that tour? At some point did one or all three musicians elevate quite high over the stage? The show I saw was in the round and very loud.
When I saw your Subject, was that Fiddy's older brother just got a Rap recording contract - heh, heh! Not funny? Oh well, I tried....

I, too, remember concerts that were under a buck. The very 1st "rock" show I ever saw way Nils Lofgren and the original Grin playing at the Cedar Lane Unitarian Church in Kensington, MD. The cost was a piggy bank busting 50 cents!! And the band was terrific, Nils was still attending Walter Johnson High School and did his infamous backflip off the trampoline while playing lead guitar schtick - high times indeed!!
I also got to see Atomic Rooster - with Carl Palmer on drums!! - at the Wheaton Civic Center. Paid $1.25 - w00t! The Raspberries (Eric Carmen, et al) and Rare Earth were $2.50 - what a ripoff! [laughing]...

I saw Grin a number of times back in the early 70's when I lived in the Baltimore area. I saw Nils do the backflip several times. It seems Grin never made it big, but pretty much stayed as a local hit. I never got to see Atomic Rooster, but would have liked to.
