I have several friends who joined midnight rambles. I had several invitations. I was always too busy. It was inconvenient timing. I was an idiot for not going.

Cool link Pipe, I could listen to the band for hours, Not many are better. Here's another bit of trivia, Eric Clapton was so impressed with the Band, he quit Cream to go to NY and hang out and Jam with them. Orionsbrother, that would have been an unforgettable experience.

I like Eric Clapton. He has listened to my band, years ago, several times. He had no choice since his yacht was docked right next to the stage where we played often.
