Popular Post Chas.Alpha Posted January 18, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 18, 2022 Aside from being the great FOH moderator and the BEST example of what FOH is, I wanted to post something that he and I would get. Others chime in if you feel the need. ”This day in music history: January 17th, 1967: The UK Daily mail published an article regarding potholes in the streets of Blackburn, Lancashire.” I’m not sure if they actually counted them all... 🙄 5 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chas.Alpha Posted January 18, 2022 Author Share Posted January 18, 2022 Thought of you and my sister when I heard that on National Public Radio today. You, well, because. My sister because I will NEVER forgive her for telling my parents that she didn’t want to be “responsible” for me when the Beatles played the show in ‘65. She was 14, I was 3. I distinctly remember throwing a tantrum! I knew at an early age... Best player of the bunch? Me. Easily... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnS Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Oh wow...putting 'two and two together' I am assuming that your sister went to the show in Jacksonville, Florida in the summer of 1965? From memory that would have been around August sometime that year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Van de graaff being the correct name of the generator in question Van der Graaf being an english rock band formed in 1967. They also titled that section "Electrickery". Probably doesn't need to be said but my children won't be going... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
