Location
In 1984, before "4 20" had any significance I was deep into touring on the east coast. We had just trucked up from the Hampton shows to the Rochester War Memorial and then over Niagara Falls Convention Center. So heading down to the 3 Philly shows Convention Center (where I live) would be a welcome break from sharing a room with 9 other ones.
My sister was a student at Wharton on the Penn Campus and her quad was just a walk from the show. I purchased her a real ticket for her first show. She was ok with watching the band play for the first set. But when the 2nd set started and we were still in the concourse area she was amazed at how the concession area transformed when the music started.
Little girls started spinning, we rounded a corner and the "painter" was there with his easel set up. This guy paints oil paintings during a show being inspired by the live vibe. Here he was working on a "Jerry" . I've seen him at Harrisburg's City Island too working on a "Brent".
My sister was familiar with most of the songs played that night except for the drumz > space. As I am sitting here in the 21st century typing this, GD Radio is playing back the show for me. Thank you for the continuing Good Times. Cheers !
