    Anyone go there? As I get older, more stuff seems to slip away. Would like to see if the memories are similar. My brother worked the stage and lights, so we got total access to every area. It was the first time I had seen so many freaks gathered together, and I fell in love with all of it. Before that, I was more a militant radical beat poet (a teen one at that!). lol

    Hello Dolly (sheesh, that sounds cheesy, sorry) lol The album you have is of the second one in 1970. Unfortunately, I missed that one. It's beautiful up here in Greenville today, I know it's great weather down there.

    Hillbilly, yep, they played there. I don't have any material things from those years, and the poster and program I had are long gone, but that sounds right (about the program).

    I don't know. The years go by, and just as nature intends, we all fade away. Funny the way memory works, huh?
