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!

3Fan you have Great Taste with Stephen Stills!  Have a bootleg 8Track  of  Stills - Manassas, was one of my  my favorites  along with Stills/Young Band. 
Long may you run! 

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!

all good stuff guys , wish I had more time to write down some trips through memory lane. I'm 48 and I did go to Woodstock , stood on stage as mater fact. Next to some legends and shook their hands. Bob weir, jorma & Jack, Rick Danko, Levon helm & Hugh Romney .
Alas it was not the 1969 festival at yasgurs farm ( although I went to some reunion shows there) but it was Woodstock II 1994. Invited by Up by Jorma's long time manager Harvey Coleman RIP

Black crowes play a wicked pre road downs ( think its on a cd I gave you ) but Stephen Stills is the man !!

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.

Dime, don't feel bad you had Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes!  Agree with you on Dylan, a Musical genious, but later in life  he sounded like he would have been booed out of Buster's in Pulaski on a friday night!

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.

Probably 43 years to this day that I was at the Fillmore East for Leslie West and Mountain.  The opening acts were a gospel rocker/zydeco type named Mylon LeFevre and a young lady named Tracy Nelson. 
Today my greatest pleasure is going to see a concert with my daughters who were raised on the music of my generation.  I make a point of seeing the old rockers whenever I can because they will be gone soon enough.  Probably headed to the Paramount Theater tomorrow night to see the New Riders of the Purple Sage. 
As for the draft & draft card, I still have mine.  Possibly the only thing I ever won was the draft lottery, my birth date was 27.  Because I was out of college (working) I was called for my physical and classified as 1A.  I was prepared to enlist in the Air Force if my notice came but it never did.
