My buddy worked for Bill Graham and we got seats behind this stage. October 23, 1982 (Day on the Green). This legendary show was part of The Who's initial "Farewell Tour" supporting their album "It's Hard". 🎶 Lineup: The Who, The Clash, and T-Bone Burnett.
DIL brought us a treat from her Grandma's local and old orchard. A bag and preserves of Fay Elberta peaches, a rare heirloom freestone peach originating in Placer County, California, around 1915. Prized for its rich, spicy flavor and firm, fine-grained texture.
Saw the Bacon Brothers band and show last night. I had no clue that Kevin was so musically talented. His brother Michael and the band put on a folk, rock, soul, and country revue that had the house on their feet.
As a 13 year old, I wore this rebellious patch on my denim jacket. My folks asked what it was, I said it was a lumberjack. My older brother said, "I'll never tell".
It has been hot here, but this is the first charred letter I've ever received. Maybe it passed through a postal op near that Medline fire in Tracy, California??
