Thanks Yvonne!
I'm not enjoying entering into this new decade at all. Maybe I'll embrace it in time

Chip, I did stop at Amoeba in Hollywood while I was visiting my mother in April... amazing store!!
Amoeba is a great store. I easily spend hours in there. -
Ha! You can see me and Wolfy in the third row. I'm in the aisle seat and Wolfy to my right
-
chip wolfysmith you here yet?
Yeah, sorry Tony. Like Paul said, we were so busy with sight seeing, etc.
I didn't even call my wife but once while I was up there
Had a blast while there. Will post some photos this weekend. -
I'm intrigued! What year would this have been made?
Hot Wire was released in 1974, not sure of the month. -

Excerpt from The Odessa American, dated Sunday, August 29, 1976, Page 53
This enough downtracking?
Good job Yvonne!!!
I haven't had time to sit down and do any research for a while now. -
Did you track down the actual dates for these shows or just the venues?
Just the venues for now. I forget where I found these shows listed, but they didn't have the dates. -
Here are the missing dates for 1976 I have.
Trapeze / Paris - City Auditorium - Beaumont, Texas
Trapeze / Paris - Municipal Auditorium - Tulsa, Oklahoma
Trapeze / Paris / Leslie West - Memorial Auditorium - Corpus Christie, Texas
Trapeze / Leslie West - Ector County Coliseum - Odessa, Texas
Trapeze / Paris / Leslie West - Sam Houston Coliseum - Houston, Texas
Trapeze / Leslie West - Texas Hall, Arlington, Texas
I also had the Lubbock and San Antonio shows in my archive, but I see they have been found. -
Lots of deaths so far this year within the world of music. Much more than past years it feels like.

I posted this on my facebook today, since George is in town tonight for a show. I thought it would fit in here on this thread about Berry Park.
I saved this from the St. Louis Post Dispatch back in 1982 when the Bad To The Bone album was released. It's about a track on the album called Back To Wentzville. -
I saw Rusty when he was in Point Blank back in 1978. They opened for Foghat

Chip wolfysmith or anyone else that plans to come to chicago - be careful where u go when u get here - hope to see and finally meet u all
Thanks for the warning
It will be my first time in Chicago, despite living just a few hours away.
We'll have to meet up. -
Someone correct me if I'm wrong... but the Amoeba Records store (I hear) is worth checking out...
If it's in any way like the one in Hollywood, I wouldn't miss the chance to visit it. I drove by Amoeba SF back in the late '90s. If I had been driving, we would have stopped.

Just get well glenn- now I got more time to get the vip money together
I agree Tony. I wanted to do and see a few things while in Chicago. -
I was wondering how Glenn was going to be able to get back out on the road in March. I work with a guy that had the same surgery and he was out for six months. Hopefully Glenn will be fully healed and ready to test out the new knees this summer
-
I admit I haven't been on here very often since I got my iPhone. It's very easy to just stay seated on the sofa and pick up the phone and catch up with what's going on in the world.
I vow to get back in the routine of checking in on a daily basis. -
Luckily my procrastination paid off. I still had not booked a hotel for the Chicago gig.
With the second show added on a Saturday, I'll be able to see both. As long as I can reschedule vacation through work. -
Thanks for the post Ad. I currently live on Wentzville where this took place. I grew up in a small town about 12 miles to the west. I was a couple years from getting my drivers license when this took place, so I didn't have a way to get there, or I would have been there.
I've been in touch with a local musician that opened the night Trapeze played. His band went on before Lee Michaells. He said Lee Michaels asked him if he could use his equipment since it started to rain. He said no
He was a massive Trapeze fan he stayed and watch their set. I asked if he had photos, but he only had photos of his band that his friend took that night.
Here is a photo of our forum friend Wolfysmith from 2014 when he came over to visit me. I took him to Chuck's place. This is the monument at his driveway.
