We were both blessed with growing up in one of the most vibrant musical cultures outside of San Fran. The very 1st rock concert I ever attended was Grin at the Cedar Lane Unitarian Church. Tix were $0.50!! Nils was 2 years ahead of me at Walter Johnson HS and I used to sneak out of English class to watch them practice in the gym.
Another group that practiced there was named Spencer and they were even better than Grin! Never did see them in concert, though. I also had the pleasure of seeing Jorma Kaukonen back before he joined the Airplane.
Man, what a great time it was to be a rocker!!!
