Obscure American history trivia

Yeah damn typo thumbs

 

Was it Sha Na Na? I believe Hendrix was the one who pushed to get them in the show.

 

Yes it was, probably the strangest band to play there. They came on at 6:45 a.m. or something like that, played for 30 minutes, then left for Hendrix.

 

Jimi loved them!

 

A law school classmate of mine was in Sha Na Na. He was in his 40s when he went to law school and just about the quietest guy you would ever meet in your life.

 

Well you know what he did to the judge every time he entered the courtroom.

Bow bow bow

 

Good night, sweetheart.

 

I revere Hendrix. But he hated surf music and loved Sha Na Na? Jimi gonna Jimi.

 

Was The Who another night?! They played very late.

 

The Who went on at 5:30 a.m. Sunday.

According to Dave Marsh's book, Before I Get Old, The Story of The Who (the best book written about the band even if it ended with their first farewell tour in 1982), Roger Daltrey called it the worst gig they ever played.

 

The video I have seen is pretty good.

I don't know how two people have a sixty year relationship in which they hate each other.
