Not completely off topic

I think I may just pick this one up...........

The review brought back an old memory. Tom may have been an infant, but being a lot more "mature" I remember those days very well. I met David and Graham one time in a "head" shop in Olean, NY. I think it was around 1972 and they were playing St. Bonaventure University that night. The guy that ran the store and I were the only ones in there when they came in. They bought a bong (who knew?). They also turned us on to two tickets. That was many brain cells ago.
