The stranger introduced himself to the group as "Roger" and played several songs, including a lively tune called "Dang Me."

Less than a year later, that song was topping the charts and that unknown dude named "Roger" was collecting a grammy for best country and western song.

And now you know... the rest of the story...
Should have had Roger sign the geetar ,good stuff

This one's been stuck in my head since last night.  Not sure why, I don't recall hearing it recently.

I don't have any Supertramp on vinyl.  It's a sad omission that I need to remedy.

I also don't have any of this band on vinyl, which is an even more serious affront:

I love the whole album, it's my favorite of theirs.

Of course my absolute favorite single Van Halen song, is not on that album, it's on 1984.

The first time I ever saw Van Halen was on the OU812 tour, we had 2nd row center stage floor seats, and Eddie performed Eruption right in front of us, maybe 10 feet away.  It was incredible.

so, you didn't get to see Diamond Dave???

First time for me was probably Saturday, June 23, 1984 in the old Omaha Civic Auditorium

not sure, it was late 70s or early 80s

we were down in front - Eddie played an acoustical set sitting barefoot on the edge of the stage while the band took a break
