Favorite Concerts: The Who at the Aud in December of 1979, the night after 11 members of The Who "family" were killed. I talked with Roger Daltry backstage that night after the concert It was by far my most surreal backstage concert experience. The show was one of the most emotional a Buffalo concert crowd would ever witness. Led Zeppelin at The Aud in 72, and Bruce Springsteen at The Aud in 1980. Bruce and I talked about Motown music and 1950's autos after the concert ended after 1am!
Biggest Concert Thrill: Seeing Paul McCartney for the first time.

Standing with the most iconic bass guitar in music history, the legendary Hofner! This was taken at
The Mirage Hotel in Las Vegas when I went to see "LOVE" for my birthday.
What makes this Hofner so special is it's signed by all four "Fabs"
