Sorry, I remembered these after i published...uggh
Capitol Theatre, Passaic, NJ
1975 or something like that
Got there with my then wife and realized I had forgotten the tix!
Didn't know what to do
We were taking a walk around the block and then organist Chris Copping was walking towards us - just us on the street.
I stopped him and told him what happened.
He said, 'come with me' - took us to the box office and got us two tix - on him!
And one more:
The successful, local New Jersey band I was in during the late 60's/early 70's called 'Everyone' opened for Procol at a college in NJ. It was during a time that the band (the original band) was not getting along. We shared a 'dressing room' with them but they weren't at all interested in engaging with us (I was the guy in the band that introduced the band to them...we used to do "Kaleidoscope." So, because they were so not nice, as a 'give back' or 'get back' to them we opened with 2001 A Space Odyssey Theme - which at that time they opened a lot of their shows with. Anyway...
