Interesting day today

["Frank" <fmiller6@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well because I work in a gambling venue we have security everywhere. This 
morning one of the guards came back into the kitchen to unlock so a delivery 
could be brought in.  As usual, I start my day by plugging in my iPod dock 
and putting the iPod on Shuffle and hitting play. The first tune to sound 
out was "I'm a Man" from the Yardbirds Anderson Theater show. This security 
guard turned to look at the iPod and smiled. He asked me what that song was. 
I told him it was The Yardbirds recorded at the Anderson Theater in April of 
1968. He looked at me, smiled, and said, "Really? I was there"!
I asked, "You were at the Yardbirds Anderson Theater show?" He nodded and 
said he was. He lived in NYC back in the late 60's and said in '68, '69, and 
'70 he spent every weekend at either the Anderson or the Fillmore East. So 
my next question was, "Did you see Led Zeppelin at the Fillmore?" To that he 
answered no, but he did say that he saw them in Florida in 1969. I asked, 
"Miami?" He said Yes it was in Miami.
So I'm burning him a copy of both shows and he is going to burn me a disk of 
what he called, "very obscure British blues and R&B bands of that time".
Oh yeah, I did ask him what he remembered about the show and he laughed and 
said, "not much, it's pretty fuzzy". I can just imagine why. LMAO
Anyway, I thought it was a very cool way to start to my day by meet someone 
who was at that show!"
I'll be picking his brain a lot from now on.

:O)
