...anyway it was a hot summer night around 7 and my friend
Dave and me were headed to a concert downtown. Jethro Tull and Black Oak Arkansas, I think. Whatever, it was a shitty concert. So there we were in his little baby blue Volkswagon with about 3 rolled joints. We're doing about 75 down the interstate headed for the auditorium and I'm lightin' up and we're toking and passing a joint back in forth... Pretty soon, up along his side and my side, there were the Hells Angels. And they're pointing at us and trying to get our attention. Well... you don't ignore the fuckin' Hells Angels when you're in a sissy-ass Volkswagon, you know? And you don't try to outrun 'em or be a smart-ass when you're 17. Dave is like, "oh shit...!" I'm like, "no shit...!" We rounded the bend on the interstate with a biker escort that wouldn't leave and I said, "Maybe we should offer the pot!" Dave's like, "yeah offer the pot....fast...!!!" So I lean out my window to offer a joint to this biker and he moved in right and takes it..." Then he pulls back, and starts grinning and kinda high-fives' it with an okay and Dave gets a charge out of the deal...and laughs his ass off... Okay, I yelled, "give that biker on your side a joint..." So Dave reaches out and hands the biker on his side a joint. Wind's blowing, music's blaring on a summer night in a little baby blue Volkswagon, and we're laughing and losing our pot to the Hell's Angels. Finally, they pulled in front and took off with about 10 more of them behind us, pulling up and around to take off for the high country, I suppose. As for a shitty concert and losing our pot and damn near our lives, well, we just kept on smilin'.... [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xn36r6sbkds"]YouTube- Wet Willie (Keep On Smiling)[/ame] |

Phoenix Symphony Hall, 1974 I remember she came out on stage with a boa draped around her neck and she said, "Ooooh Hellooooooo..... I....am....the Divine...Miss....M..... and I've come to shake my tits...." As soon as the house came down, she broke into this: [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8s27g6bdpE"]YouTube- Bette Midler - Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy[/ame] Another great 70's memory brought to you by Ol' Jet. |

I remember my cousin Dawn and me had gone to see The Reincarnation of Peter Proud at the drive-in. She was crazy about Michael Sarazzin. http://i489.photobucket.com/albums/r...icture12-2.png That was about the time Mandy would have been on the radio on our way to a late night breakfast after the show. I'd give anything to do that with her again. Dawn died of lupus and other complications in 2000. She was my best friend.

Popper knockers or "klackers"
My mom took mine away from me after my wrists and forearms became bruised and swollen. I couldn't stop knocking my klackers. lol
She insisted my knockers would give me cancer? http://www.feelingretro.com/toys/Mis...r-knockers.php http://www.feelingretro.com/toys/Mis...r-knockers.php |
"I have a pic somewhere from about 25 years ago wearing white shorts, one of those shirts with the alligator insignia wearing the starched shirt collar up, sunglasses and riding the float from the LGBT Center in Los Angeles. Hmm, maybe this should be in an 80s thread?"
This is a piece of a post I did in another thread. One day later I finally remember the designer, brand name of those very popular shirts with the alligator, IZOD. Those IZOD shirts were all over in the 70s and early 80s. |

The Killing of Georgie Parts 1 and 2 [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9E6lNsI22I"]YouTube- Rod Stewart - The killing of Georgie[/ame] In these days of changing ways so called liberated days a story comes to mind of a friend of mine Georgie boy was gay I guess nothin' more or nothin' less the kindest guy I ever knew His mother's tears fell in vain the afternoon George tried to explain that he needed love like all the rest Pa said there must be a mistake how can my son not be straight after all I've said and done for him Leavin' home on a Greyhound bus cast out by the ones he loves A victim of these gay days it seems Georgie went to New York town where he quickly settled down and soon became the toast of the great white way Accepted by Manhattan's elite in all the places that were chic No party was complete without George Along the boulevards he'd cruise and all the old queens blew a fuse Everybody loved Georgie boy The last time I saw George alive was in the summer of seventy-five he said he was in love I said I'm pleased George attended the opening night of another Broadway hype but split before the final curtain fell Deciding to take a short cut home arm in arm they meant no wrong A gentle breeze blew down Fifth Avenue Out of a darkened side street came a New Jersey gang with just one aim to roll some innocent passer-by There ensued a fearful fight screams rang out in the night Georgie's head hit a sidewalk cornerstone A leather kid, a switchblade knife He did not intend to take his life He just pushed his luck a little too far that night The sight of blood dispersed the gang A crowd gathered, the police came An ambulance screamed to a halt on Fifty-third and Third Georgie's life ended there but I ask who really cares George once said to me and I quote He said "Never wait or hesitate Get in kid, before it's too late You may never get another chance 'Cos youth a mask but it don't last live it long and live it fast" Georgie was a friend of mine Oh Georgie stay, don't go away Georgie please stay you take our breath away Oh Georgie stay, don't go away Georgie please stay you take our breath away Oh Georgie stay, don't go away Georgie, Georgie please stay you take our breath away Oh Georgie stay |
Simple Man The first time I fell deeply and innocently in love I was 16. Her name was Ali. And she was beautiful. She gave me a hollowed blue egg on which she had written a poem by Wordsworth in calligraphy. I still have it. I had never loved like I loved then. It took nearly 4 years to get over her. This was her favorite song by Graham Nash. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U1Ku6LqFrio"]YouTube- Graham Nash w/ David Crosby - Simple Man[/ame] |
