Chappell Roan Apr 6 2024 Tre Intersection GR MI shirt

The greatest were Bruce Springsteen and the Chappell Roan Apr 6 2024 Tre Intersection GR MI shirt But I will love this E Street Band. I and a buddy got to have them all alone in a bar on a Sunday night. Got to speak to all of them at length. Max Weinberg talked a lot about drummers which he is a scholar at, and I was always a suppressed drummer. They were all wonderful, down to earth, genuine guys. A terrific experience. The Worst? I knew some guys that knew Ted Nugent. They dragged me along to the dressing room. He was a total and complete asshole. This is pre his political bullshit. But he was just a total idiot, acting all “rock star” when all he ever was is a glorified bar band. His drummer mentioned that he was really tired and Nugent docked him $50 telling him “you’ll play all night if I tell you to.” Yeah that kind of asshole.

I’ve also enjoyed meeting Tommy James, Mark Lindsay, Peter Noone, Chad and Jeremy, and Gary Lewis. Gary Lewis was one of the Chappell Roan Apr 6 2024 Tre Intersection GR MI shirt But I will love this nicest guys I ever met. I scored an interview with Ringo Starr by promising that we would never discuss any bands whose name starts with B. But right before my then girlfriends mother went to her deathbed in another city so……… While studying the lute in London, I went to a harpsichord recital of Robert Wooley in South Bank’s Purcell room. Must have been around 1980. During the intermisión, I spotted Pete Townsend. He was with his daughter (about 14, I’d guess). I talked to him and he was approachable OK, and I happened to have a camera on me, which was rare at the time, and I my friend take a picture. Around the same period, I went to a BB King concert in Hammersmith Odeon and saw Eric Clapton cheering enthusiastically in the audience. I then saw him drinking a beer with a blonde woman which now I realize must have been Pattie Boyd. I approached him to say hi and he was very cool and relaxed. There wasn’t a crowd around him. Just a regular guy drinking his beer. Are you Eric Clapton? Yeah. Had a 5-minute conversation without ever feeling he was in a rush to move on. I told him I played the lute and l and that he was well known in Venezuela (my home country). Apparently he had no idea at the time “Do they hear blues in Venezuela?” he asked. It’s a relatively small circle but big time. There is a quite a culture. I told him his LP with the Bluesbreakers was one of my favorite and he said it was one of his favorite too. I probably mentioned that LP to show I knew more than Cream and Derek and the Dominoes. He was also willing to listen to whatever I wanted to say.
