Thank you, diss...I bought Welcome To The Wrecking Ball and Dreams on vinyl just based on the covers and the fact that Grace Slick is such an amazing singer with such an eccentric personality...

I suppose that someday, that day when I have the time to take up the piano or the guitar, I will get to know my voice. Now, there was an African American gentleman seated behind me in San Jose...He could really sing! He seemed to be the only other person there who knew the lyrics to every single song, besides me. This guy was so in love with Stevie, too...Kept talking about how beautiful and classy she was.

It really was pretty funny...Stevie's family, seated in front of us, kept looking back at him and laughing. Her brother (Chris?) looked like he was rather bored by the entire thing, though. One of her relatives, looked almost like Lori Nicks to me, looked back at me sympathetically when I cried during "Sara"...And, I know these people were of the Nicks family because the teenage girl in front of us proudly told us so and was calling out "Steeeevieeeeee" constantly.

Best of all: Miss Nicks knew where her family was seated, so several times she shook her tambourine at them and smiled very very warmly. I swear, it looked as if she was looking straight at me, but I know that she was smiling at her family...

My, this turned into rambling fairly quickly. Good times...
