Thank you for your posts. All of you have seen people I would like to have seen. Sweet Basil's and The Blue Note in NYC were simply great evenings with great music and friends.
Perhaps the oddest musical experience I ever had was when I was in the Air Force and went to the "club" art a remote base in the middle of nowhere and a group showed up with a pretty blond and brunette that turned out to be ABBA....don't know what they were calling themselves at the time. Also I was on vacation and one evening at a nice "yacht club/bar/supper club" this young grey haired guy started doing a comedy routine,...it was Steve Martin in his early days. Oddly later I was at MOMA in NYC and in a room with a huge Jackson Pollock I was backing up to get a better look and backed into someone....turned out to be Steve Martin.
So many interesting experiences in my life have very much been unplanned surprises, like when racing at Road America and having contact with Paul Newman.
