That 70s Thread - Page 7

Jet · 03-11-2010, 06:49 PM

...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'....

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:

A 70's craze...shortlived, but it was fun while it lasted. Boy, did I shake my booty to this one!! (I had a nice booty to shake in those days, and wore the short skirts too! lol)

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.

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.

I love,love,love 70's music, all of it.

child of the 60's
aware in the 70's
too effed up in the 80's
too busy in the 90's
figuring what it's all about in the 00's
going with the flow in the here and now.

She insisted my knockers would give me cancer?

"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.

That was another 70s phenomena, the movie "Urban Cowboy" came out and all of a sudden there were gay cowboy clubs all over Southern California. I feel pretty sure most of the urban cowboys would not know the back end of a horse if it were staring them in the face.
