Subject: aaaaahhhhhhhh, the memories.....thnx Lexton

Not real sure where to begin, except to say i've been a fan for decades (gawd, that must date me) LOL, but very glad to see you on the board BC. I wonder if you might share any memories of the old days playing "dances" in Grafton, Minto, or Grand Forks. I caught several dances, and spoke with you every time, being a typical fan. I've caught your shows both with GW and solo, in diff venues over the years. I was backstage at The Eagles Hotel California tour at the downs in Winnipeg when you joined Steve Miller onstage, doing a duet of "The Joker".....will be the first to admit i was quite influenced by maryjane, and it only made the performance more exquisite...caught many shows at the Centenniel Concert Hall, my fav there was your "Dreams of a Child" tour, where at the end of that song, during the instrumental, you stood up on your bench and did a slow swan rhytmical arm wave...i wont discuss how i deceived, connived, and blatantly cheated to get into the show after my tickets got misplaced at the door LOL...also caught you with GW at UND fieldhouse in GF, and thought Dom T.'s guitar work, although brilliant, was a bit out-of-step with the band.....hhhmmmmm, i recall you and ZZ Top in Fargo about 77 or 78 as well, excellent show!!! A personal observation if i may: Seems like when you write solo, we get mostly ballads, which is of couse fine. But seems like when you have a co-writer, we get hard-driving Rock-n-Roll which is great.....just a random thought.....Also recall a show you and Randy did at Chester Fritz in early or mid 80's, where you said an earthquake blew you out of bed that very morning, before you flew in for the show...the wife, 2 sons and i went backstage to meet and greet, but were soundly stopped by good old Marty. I dropped a name of a gal from the booking agency, hoping Marty would let us in, and he lamented, wanting to know how i knew Mary---oil well hehehe, we met again, and the wife and kids were rather awe-struck...you recalled seeing us in the front row of the show, and i was impressed you spotted that, with the lights, etc.....Also caught a GW show in Hawaii, but truthfully, i had found a lil maui-wowee, but thats another story LOL...By the way, any idea whatever happened to Larry Evoy? I lost touch with him after he moved from Toronto in the mid 70's.....thanks for everything BC............Doug
