Both Jim Croce(Class of 1960) and Todd Rundgren(Class of 1966) came from Upper Darby High School,from the Philly suburbs. For years the school used the Tower Theater(then a movie house)for graduation ceremonies. It would fall into disrepair shortly as it screened dollar movies and homeless folk coming in from the cold. Jump a few years and David Bowie's first live album was recorded at the Tower.
If you start Dark Side of the Moon and the Wizard of Oz at the exact same time, you'll invent Liquid Paper.
LOL..... that was from grade school... and I'm 50. I now know that RS has had more women than most men ever have.
Roger Waters once won a guitar player magazine best bass player award for the work David Gilmour did on the tougher Animals tracks
Was that ever confirmed or was that just another story that got passed around when they were sniping at each other in the press? Not that Roger is any great shakes at bass these days, but he was like Nick Mason in that he STARTED pretty prone to some nice displays on his instrument...
Rod Stewart has a rider in his contract (or did for a while) to make sure his accommodations on tour were large enough to house a workbench for him to work on things for his model railway.

I was in the studio where that album was recorded. It's the same studio that recorded Grand Funk Railroad during the Terry Knight era.
"SOS" by ABBA is the only charting song where both the artist's name and the song title are palindromes.
and Elton John and David Bowie and Freddie Mercury and Lou Reed and in a newer version, Marilyn Manson.
LOL. That explains why his skin looked so good at his age! (used it for sagging skin!). Nez must be jealous that folks think that! LOL.
Used record collectors are now the biggest market for dryer sheets. Snuggles is now trying to develop a PVC scented version to give your moldy oldies that new record smell!
I remember that! Given that Nabors used to hang with Hudson all the time (and is gay), it wasn't that far off base.
A supervisor of mine once told me that when he was in New York Hudson had to hit the more off the beaten track gay bars due to his fame. One of those bars was Mother's on 23rd Street, which later went on to host the earliest shows by Ramones, Television, Heartbreakers...
