My Brush with Greatness
Hi Bart, my girlfriend
was reminding me of the time , in 1968 or ’69, when we were staying
with another girlfriend in Santa Monica, we went to the Shrine
auditorium, to see the Who,
the crazy world of Arthur Brown and Fleetwood Mac before they were ever
heard of.
The Who were just starting their songs
for the album Tommy, it was one of the best concerts
I ever went to, and I went to A LOT of concerts. Anyhoo, in between
sets we were smoking ciggies,
and Peter Townsend came up and asked my girlfriend if she had a light.
That’s it, that was one of my brushes
with greatness, I mean, PETER TOWNSEND was a gawd to me!!!
Ahhh, those were the days.
Denise the hippie chick. ;*)
P.S., this was when Arthur Brown came barreling down, like he was
flying, onto the stage, with his head on fire, seriously, what a trip.
