What A Long, Strange Trip It’s Been…

I have been graciously invited by Allen and Chuck to take a stroll down the dark and twisted roads that make up my somewhat foggy memory to take a look back at my 40 plus years as a fan of and performer in this thing we call the music business.

With over 2000 shows to my credit as a concert goer going back to 1969 and who knows how many as a bass player, I hope to be able to share my somewhat twisted view from both sides of the stage.

Sometimes funny, sometimes serious, but you won’t find any sacred cows or punches pulled here.

Upcoming articles include:

  • My first show.
  • Rock Legends that performed in Evanspatch before and after they broke into the mainstream.
  • Nightclubs Of Yore.
  • Guns, Guitars, and Hangin’ With The Nuge.

And last, but not least :

  • Is it really necessary to take a full Marshall stack to a gig at The Deerhead ?

This may all just end up being the ramblings of an aging musician in the twilight of his musical, sometimes non-career, but I hope you all enjoy the ride.

Excerpt…

Still, Nugent holds out hope for the country. “I believe that we the people will eventually see the criminality of the Obama administration and eventually stop them one way or another, so I have eternal faith in my fellow man,” he says. “I can’t believe this experiment in self-government is over. I can’t believe the documents our founding fathers clearly articulated and wrote are going to be abandoned for tyranny and slavery, and that’s really what Obama represents. He represents that ‘you people are so stupid and inept, I’ll have to cover you.’ I just don’t believe that’s true.”

Here’s the rest of thestory…
