Second Show That Night
I came down from Scarsdale with my friend, Curt Brokaw (A&R at RCA), for the second show. BB King opened, to an audience of mostly middle-aged black men, drinking wine/beer out of paper-bag-covered containers. He was smokin! and mellow, too.
Toward the end of BB's set, I popped a couple of tabs of acid, then toked on a joint to get "right". A short break, then BAM! Led Zepp came on, AND SO DID I!! The music... the vocals... were so intense; I could barely stay on my feet.
A month later, I went to Woodstock (the music festival), but this remains THE best live rock concert I've ever attended.
