The 8-track would cough up the cassette, followed by a stream of iron-oxide plastic vomit, and there went "I'm a Believer." Sometimes we'd wind 'em back up, cut and splice the too-badly mangled sections and get another month or so out of 'em. Never really trusted tape decks...

We're trying to get the word out a bit on the various music related going's on here in Orange County, CA and, of course, when the big names come to town, their fan bases overlap with and help build our local traffic. Also, it's fun to talk to these folks who have managed to support themselves (and a lot more) solely (or mostly) through their musicianship. I've been at it 40 years myself and still have a hard time getting anyone to listen to me for free!
