Saw him play a club once and he was so loud, we had to listen outside from the parking lot.

Wow! You must be old.....because I was at that concert and I'm old!

Johnny Winter And Live was a great album, still listen once in a while. He and Rick Derringer played some impressive guitar leads. Oh, the good old days!

I was at that concert too. Rally Weekend was my favorite weekend of the year. One constant party all weekend long. I wonder if App still has anything like that now. Or maybe now its every weekend. Good memories.
