  1. We began going to AC in 1968.There was no gambling .We went to see The Fifth Dimension in concert and the Ice Capades.
  2. I saved ticket stubs from every concert I went to,I won tickets for a Turtles concert,never went and still have the tickets .I won tickets for Live Aid and could not go and gave them away.
  3. I was born in Brooklyn and lived there 60 years.When you say NYC you mean Manhattan.It is disgusting all over the West side from 23 St.to 53 St I live in a small town in NY now .There is zero crimes of violence ,so little crime that we do not have the need for a police force.
  4. People who have lived in Manhattan for many years are now moving to the suburbs .8th.Ave is a cesspool.
  5. I have a daughter and family living on the West side of Manhattan .It was a beautiful place to walk.Currently there are homeless people sleeping on the sidewalk. I walked in Manhattan from the 40’s to 2017.It was a great ,safe place to walk at one time.I am 6’5 and spent a portion of my life in Law Enforcement .I never got scared .Walking in Manhattan now is very scary.
  6. My beard at its longest was longer than the ZZ Top guys.Occasionally I have my barber trim it close to the face.When I was young my beard was reddish brown.Now it is Santa Claus White and I hate that.If you like the Beatles check out Mitch Weissman on You Tube.He played Paul McCartney in Beatlemania on YouTube. I worked with his father many years.
  7. From age 27 to 40 I had shoulder length hair and a beard to match.I still have my hair .All of my male friends are either bald or have bald spots.My beard is still fairly long.I posted pictures on CC of my bearded days and I have a picture currently on a thread in the Floataway Lounge from about 40 years ago.
  8. White Rabbit is one of my all time favorite songs .If you want to hear somebody sing it who in my opinion is better than Grace Slick google Melissa League.There is a video on You Tube of the band she is in .I saw her sing it live several times.
  9. TSOTD is Abbey Road from the Beatles collection.For years I did not wear it.I just kept it as a collectible item.Several years ago I wore it on a cruise. I was sitting outside and a guy approached me wearing the same shirt.He sat down ,we introduced ourselves and proceeded to have a long discussion on The Beatles as well as the British influence on Classic Rock.He was from the UK and surprised that I shared his opinion on many British singers and groups.
  10. It has not been really hot where I am yet this year but next week it is expected to be in the 80’s.Normally it gets hot by mid May.
  11. I posted on here previously about a cousin of mine who produced a show that opened in Boston to rave reviews.He brought the show to NY.It opened at a theater very close to Broadway,had standing room only at the opening and it bombed.The actors in the production all had good careers .
  12. I did not see it but last Wednesday night I zoomed a benefit show and one of the performers was the composer from the show.He played and sang several of the songs in the show and I found them enjoyable. The show has been nominated for several Tony’s including Best Musical.
  13. I have a chronic back problem and I prefer mattresses that feel like concrete.
  14. I have been on many RCI ships and do not recall a switch but perhaps I was too busy doing other things.
