The Rounders opened for:
Pink Floyd:
On their way to the show,the Rounders decided that rather than do the" Cool
Thing"-which was to smoke pot or drop acid-they got stinking drunk.The
audience hated them.
Creedence Clearwater Revival
For their last song they did "Snappin' Pussy".The college security was
offended and pulled the plug.
The Grateful Dead's first N.Y.C.gig-at the Cafe au Go Go-'67.
Some of my college friends(I hadn't met them yet)brought a BUNCH of
Orange Sunshine and dosed everyone.The Rounders got WHACKED.Iv'e
heard they don't remember much about the gig.
The Byrds-at Carnegie Hall
Robin figured that since the Rounders were considered a bunch
of"Hicks"that they should play the part.He brought a bunch of chickens-he
thought that letting them run around onstage during their set would be a nice
touch.The stagehands said it was definitely against Union Rules and they had
to keep them in the dressing room.After the Byrd's set Roger McGuinn came
back to the dressing room and found that one of the chickens had laid an egg
in his Rickenbacker 12 string guitar case. He was NOT pleased.
