I was there for their bicentennial concert in 1976 on the mall too. Don't know why you don't remember me. Hurts a littleView attachment 5300192
Well there was only about 300-500 thousand people there that year. Curse this long term memory :bigjoint: . I remember the year after they kicked the Beach Boys out they had Julio Iglesias lol. We had a block party and a neighborhood hoodlum shot off a shit ton of illegal fireworks. Way cooler than Julio. Those were good times to live in DC. Before the crack epidemic turned it into a shooting gallery in the 80s.

Beach Boys were fun, they played Philly and DC every 4th.
Didn't they have Wayne Newton play there next year after Julio? I distinctly remember his "One more time!" line and the whole crowd bood him.

Rained all yesterday. Sun just popped out here, and supposed to be a decent, cooler weekend. Low 70's.

I have redesigned my tent set-up in my mind so many times now... I need to remember KISS

Back to Lowes....I bought CPVC stuff yesterday, when I want PVC. I wondered why so expensive. That's what I get for getting stoned on the way there!! I am more of a copper guy!

I had to run errands yesterday and earlier (WAY earlier) I'd taken a dab of Apple Fritter. So this is hours later and I'm sure the cops are following me. Thankfully I had the experience to talk my dumbass self down and drive home. That was after Benadryl too. So I told myself no more of that unless I have tolerance (just off a tolerance break). I'm thinking about taking a dab now and guess what I'm reaching for :lol:

My sister and her friends went that year. I wasn't going to see Wayne lol. I was a metal head by then and Wayne Newton would have been torture. I went to a John Lennon memorial there after he was shot and the whole mall was teaming with older hippies. Almost smoked my first joint there but it got passed before I worked up the nerve to try it lol.

Whew, the DTW table is in the works. I made it a 4 x 8 instead of 4 x 4....Because, why not? :lol:

Table is done, now to make the legs and cut the corrugated decking and vinyl gutter.

I have to order a condensation pump still, and a few other goodies, but this might just be awesome.

Or it might leak and flood my basement, one never knows.

32 gallon res. also purchased today!! Just a little flood.

I would have loved to have seen them in concert. I saw Motley Crue and Ratt on tour but never anything really head banging like Megadeth, Metallica, Priest or any of the bigger guys. I wish I had caught AC/DC back then too. So many great bands and so few dollars for tickets as a kid making $3.35 an hour lol.
Ronnie James Dio is my favorite seen him 3 times the last time was a few months before he passed away that show had Deep Purple and the Scorpion it was a great show
