Location: Right now? | Well, I"m depressed already, but this is a pretty, pretty song, and that guitar sure is familiar. Geez, I love the violin, too; anything stringed, actually, including spaghetti.
How many of you guys wore tuxedo shirts like that to your prom or wedding, lol ... and the hair ... oh my goodness.
It's still a great song. I saw a newer version of them singing it on an 'unplugged' show, but the singer was getting too carried away with himself, and it wasn't nearly as nice to listen to or watch as this one is, despite the need for the Fashion Police and hair stylists.
(Yes, I'm overdosing on the internet this week, but I'm stuck in the house and it's either this or housework.)
Watch and listen right here
;)

Location: Blue Ridge Mountains | I met Kerry Livgren's family while on the road in Kansas during a '79 tour...very nice folks and his cousin is a wonderful keyboard player...he had worked with Kerry on some of his early songs and gave me some great background on the band. I was using my trusty Pacemaker 1615-4 and a natural top three pickup Les Paul Custom...great times and great memories...
About the tux shirt: guilty! Jr. Prom in HS...Sr Prom myself and 5 friends wore Tux's w/tails and top hats...what a goof but at the time was a great prank... |

My hair is falling-out, and I haven't been able to grow it down my back since I cut it in '94. :(
I used to be down to my belt in the back.
And all y\'all outta state people, try this one... Without the vevo ad on it... |

Willa - this was my prom jacket, which was also used as the band outfit. And yes... it came with the matching shirt.
At least it beats the other guy - he was wearing a lab coat. |

Location: Right now? | On second thought, I probably shouldn't wear them. I'd most likely fall on my @ss again.
I prefer barefeet anyway ~ in the house, that is. Gonna go practice on my OVATION GUITAR now ... with my hands, not my feet.

Location: GATLINBURG TENNESSEE :) | Wow! ... With all the "retro" stuff being popular today, you would think everyone would be snatching up all the old Ovation guitars to go along with their tiedye and corny old clothes.
Nice song and one nice guitar. Thanks for the trip down memory lane. |
