I was Legal to drink...'77 I was a year out of high school...Michigan had changed the legal drinking age to 18 in 1972, and back to 21 starting Jan, 1979. So I only had to wait till my birthday in May '79 to drink again. I had to start buying for my 'friends' again.

16 years old at the time, with my new license to drive!

10 years old. Was already a space program groupie, but had not found my musical identity yet. Was just beginning to hear and appreciate the Sabbath and ACDC the older kids were playing....
