Was it a physical fight or just an argument? A physical fight????? :o I was only in one in my entire life, and that was with some grammar school taunting bully in the schoolyard. No, it was an argument. I was only 16 and a junior, and, while I didn't mind traveling alone going to the concert, I did have concerns walking from the concert to the subway station through the East Village and then having to travel the rest of the way home by myself close to midnight or later.

Lorraine Posted June 12, 2017 Author Share Posted June 12, 2017 Besides, I don't think my mother would have let me go alone. This was 1970. Vastly different from the way things are today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes things grab me at times too and I cannot believe the number of years that have passed. vt, what a find! This made me laugh out loud. Did no cameraman, soundman, etc know what a toke was? I guess they just didn't want to admit it since the Lawrence Welk show was their employer! :D 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He even calls it a "modern spiritual" at the end!Myron Floren looks and sounds like he had a toke before that introduction I grew up with this stuff, and was entertained by it as a youngster. LW always had a great band, despite the oft-times corny arrangements they had to deal with. :smoke: :smoke: :smoke: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorraine Posted June 28, 2017 Author Share Posted June 28, 2017 I hope the rest of your day went better, Lorraine! Sometimes things grab me at times too and I cannot believe the number of years that have passed. ... That's just it - I was about 11 when the song came out and will be 63 next week. I started thinking about my mother and father, aunts and uncles, grandparents, my brother ... all were alive and well then, and gone now. Walmart has a good radio station. I don't care for the store at all and loathe going there, but they are a lot cheaper on many items, and not by a few cents either. By a few dollars often. I bought one item today that was $3 cheaper in Walmart than at the other store I normally shop at. That's a gallon of gas. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorraine Posted June 28, 2017 Author Share Posted June 28, 2017 I also wonder whatever happened to all of my friends from back then. How did their lives turn out? Are they still alive? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
