You're welcome, Stephen. I wasn't even looking, but I spotted the link by serendipity and had to look.

Here's a great comment from this link:

"Just to illustrate life in the pre information age, I was 9 years old, standing 15 feet from some red headed hippie in a tie dye tank top, having no earthly idea who he was, and thinking, 'This guy with the broken finger plays the best guitar I ever heard, Wow! When he gets that cast off of his finger, I bet he's gonna be really good!'

I also stared at Gregg's Leslie cabinet the whole time wondering 'What on earth is that thing?' He had it facing ugly side out so you could see the rotors spinning. After about an hour, I 'figured out' that it must be some kind of air conditioner for outdoor use to blow cool air on everybody. (It gets hot and humid in Atlanta in August)

That was my level of sophistication and understanding at age 9. But it did not stop me from being completely knocked out by the music itself, and the memory of that day will last the rest of my life."
