1. It looks like he IS drooling.

4. I know, but I still listen to him ...

it's a quandry.

[Rabrrrrrr]

3. One of the coolest rock shows I've ever seen!

Blood, swords, dead bodies, snakes - it was awesome!

5. My very first concert. They were awesome.

However, the roadie telling the audience about the 'really bad acid' fell into the interesting category.

6. Sweet! When did you see him?

I saw him the second show of his comeback tour, in Saginaw, MI. I think it was 1987. I'd been a fan for years, but of course he also had stopped touring about 1980 or thereabouts, so I had to wait for his comeback.

I'm glad he was able to make his comeback, AND get off the booze.

Sad that he's such a rightwinger, though. I wonder what Zappa would think...

7. Gosh, it must have been about 1972 or so.

Dillon Stadium in Hartford, CT. My DAD drove me and a bunch of my friends because we were 13, 14 and waited in the car. What a hoot. I still remember what I wore. They opened with School's Out.

And, interestingly, when I was teaching high school, I worked in a video store one summer as the 'chain' (three stores) manager. Guess who showed up looking for work? Dennis Dunaway. When I saw the resume and saw that he was from AZ, I about fell out of my chair.

Nice guy. Completely and utterly brain dead, but still a nice guy.

8. Wow - that's pretty sad!

I see that he put out an album last year:

So hopefully he's doing better than working a video store. He laid down some fantastic bass grooves.

9. I think the video stop was hitting bottom for him.

Seriously. He had Cindy and 2 (I think) daughters to provide for and he just wasn't making any music. This was the summer of 1986. I don't think he lives in CT anymore, but I could be wrong.
