Retro FIshing Rock

Seeing I just hit my BIG 60 yesterday and many of this Boards members are Classic Rockers, just want to know if any of you also lived this?
I think I was 15 at the time.  Niagara Falls was dried up ****Nixon was in in or almost in?  I got chased off the river by the NY Parlk police for filling my pockets with coins tourists tossed in the River  by tourists for good luck a bove the falls thru the years.
Got served my first beer  45 years ago at a local bar courtecy of a fake draft card.  Beer of choice was Iroquois thanks to the local Buffalo  tribe!    Woodstock had already occurred and my mother would not let me go so my sister was kind enoigh to let me use her 67 Mustang for   travel to Watkins Glen to see the BAND - DEAD and ALLMAN Bros! a couple years later.   Nothing better than listening to a couple 8Tracks on your 60th!  Woodstock Soundtrack and CSN&Y 4 Way Street.   Only problem is you gotta do it on Itunes as the 8Tracks are history.
 
Any of you guys go to either concert?
 

I was a redneck...lol Country music and Elvis,Roy Orbison,righteous bros,Johnny Rivers,Glen Campbell, just a few that were on my 8 tracks. Was in Caribue Maine in 73.

I too was a poor college student working my way through undergraduate school.  I was on the seven year plan because I would quit school to work. 
I had friends that went to Woodstock but I wasn't into the hippie scene as I was still pretty much a high school jock.  Went to a number of shows at the Fillmore East, MSG, etc. but my favorite was the Schaeffer Music Festival at the Wollman Skating Rink in Central Park.  Carnegie Hall was another venue that I saw some great acts.    

Good responses! Glad I wasn't the only one with a fake Draft card. Think I was in the same boat of being too young to be a Hippie! I think first concert at the Aud in Buffalo was a local band Raven that opened for Joe Walsh and the "James Gang". Missed Jimi Hendrix and Led Zeppelin. I did see the Original James Gang is gonna tour this summer! You know they will play Funk49!

Well I was too old when all this occurred and put my time in before Nam and then got married and worked at various things so be glad you're 60 and younger as before you know it you'll look back and ask.....where the hell did it go?
Happy birthday RichW !!.....And HAPPY NEW YEAR to everyone.

Thank You and Happy New Year to You too Jack!  Hope you are cooking up some Polish Soul Food for the New Year! Cannot agree with you more about being Happy to Be Here!  Lost a good friend of mine this year  that put me onto Pulaski - North and South Sandy, Taco Bob's the Wigwam  and the Country Pizza Inn.    Probobly would not be fishing and on this board  if it were not for Him.    Like the guy in the Dos Equis commercial says,  "Stay Thirsty My friend!

Rich there is some kind of strange connection between fishers and lovers of music. Two of my favorite Stills discs are Live at shepherd bush, and Carry On his box set. I love acoustic!

I'm a youngan compared to anyone on this thread I'm sure but at age 33 I did see the dead twice with gerry still around as a teen eager at giant stadium... first with traffic as an opener and second with Dylan... gotta say Dylan sounded horrible back in 95... gerry died a month after I saw them.

Johnny and the jukes were maybe just a little too far south from me!!! Lol :)
Yeah, I remember my mother cracking up over Dylan singing as a guest appearance on the music awards back in maybe 1990 or so... definitely a great musician and artist/song writer... I really enjoy his work with the band.
