Lorraine Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I'm old enough to have heard the one about Rod Stewart ending up in the hospital because ... well ..... if you are old enough, you'll probably remember too Indeed I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorraine Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 (edited) The only other rumors I remember from back then - either Ray Davies or Eric Clapton (don't remember which one) had the insides of an eighty year old man due to all the speed they took, and me scrutinizing the album cover of Abbey Road looking for more telltale signs that Paul was really dead and the man walking across the street barefoot wasn't Paul at all.

blueschica Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I'm old enough to have heard the one about Rod Stewart ending up in the hospital because ... well ..... if you are old enough, you'll probably remember tooThe variant I heard was that the source of the 17oz was a horse. Is that what you heard?The only other rumors I remember from back then - either Ray Davies or Eric Clapton (don't remember which one) had the insides of an eighty year old man due to all the speed they took, and me scrutinizing the album cover of Abbey Road looking for more telltale signs that Paul was really dead and the man walking across the street barefoot wasn't Paul at all. You guys had it wild where you lived! We just heard about need for the stomach pump, no horse! And I never got to hear about Ray/Eric having the insides of an 80 yr old man- that is pretty cool. All we had in PA was the old story that Keith Richards went to Switzerland once a year to get all new blood because he was such a drug user. Was so disappointed to read his autobiography and find out it was not true! Gasp! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guys.. the coma thing could be true..!! ;) UFO opened for Rush Michael Schenker was the guitarist in the Scorpions that joined UFO ( Michael's older brother Rudolph is a founding member of the Scorps, and has been a mainstay in the band since day one ... Michael briefly returned to the Scorps in 1978-79 and recorded Love Drive - and played a few shows with them also ) Let's look past the fact that UFO's bassist Pete Way is putting his pants on .. The burning question should be: Why is Geddy wearing Neil's Percussion Center shirt, and how that that happen ?? :) http://www.cygnus-x1.net/links/rush/images/books/prog-04.2013/prog-04.2013-15.jpg http://www.beatsworking.tv/UFO/UFO_1977_rush.jpg Edited January 29, 2016 by Lucas 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Morrison faked his death. He's really still alive and lives somewhere in Paris. You can thank me later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete always wore them crazy "quiet riot" sort of pants which could maybe explain part of this but WTF happened?? I wonder if Neil's passed out in the back with Glee's slippers, but why is he cleaning his index finger..? Big can of worms this pic is.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just noticed the figure on the right side of the photo - right hand uncomfortably squeezing the left hand Must be Neil Seriously, I'm trying to see in the mirrors who that is .. can't quite tell ... the shadow is sort of creepy And is that a bra in the middle mirror, over Pete Way's head ?? ..

I didn't even notice that. It might very well be Neil. It looks like a bra hanging to me too, and the shadow might be Geddy? Or the guy uncomfortably twisting his hands wondering how he can graciously get the hell out of the room? I don't know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then he blurts out: hey pete nice banana you got here (points to banana on fruit tray in the background). Soooo. Pete....did that bra have a name attached to it? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
