Okay, I've said it before, but:

1. Jimi Hendrix and the Experience, Rhode Island Auditorium, 1968.

2. Eric Clapton and Cream, ditto.

3. Carlos Santana, Woodstock.

4. Janis Joplin with Big Brother and the Holding Company and yes, she really did keep a fifth of Southern Comfort behind the Marshalls. Newport Folk Festival, 1968....ummmm, maybe '69...I dunno, I've heard it said that if you remember the 60's you weren't really there.

5. Led Zeppelin, same year, same place.

6. Sly and the Family Stone, ditto.

7. The Great One I Missed: Third Row Box Seats (Seats 48, 49, 50 outta 100) for The Allman Brothers at the Newport Festival. The show was cancelled due to the riot.

Well, Sherman, how's that for a trip in the Wayback Machine?

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
