Favorate band growing up

Dead on Dude!!!!! I thought maybe the newer bands would throw ya off a bit! or did you look at my profile? lol.

Actually I found your post and read that you listened to a lot of Kiss. I would`ve guessed you were in your early 40`s but I saw your age in your profile so that blows my theory to (Smithereens) Lol!. A lot of young guys love Zep, Rush, AC/DC, Aerosmith, etc. so it`s sometimes difficult to tell age by music.

Grand Funk Railroad

Ah Grand Funk, fun band and Mark Farner, not the greatest guitar player but I loved the way he sang, oh and Don Brewer was a great drummer for the times. Who didn`t have the RED album? What guitar player that had a band back then didn`t play "I`m your Captain"? They were one of the first concerts I ever saw along with bands like, Steppenwolf, Iron Butterfly, Three Dog Night, The Allman Bros.. The Hampton Coliseum here was finished in 1969 and opened for concerts shortly thereafter. I`ve enjoyed countless concerts there including the Stones in 75, 78, and 81. The Grateful Dead made an annual visit which always transformed the town into mini Woodstock once a year. A lot of fun and good memories,good acoustics, and nice architecture too.
