28 August 1987
Fabulous Thunderbirds opened

I believe I went with Marianne to this show.  Hmmm . . . as I go back through all this, it seems like Marianne was around a lot that summer.  I don’t quite recall it like that, but what do I know.

It was the 20th Anniversary of the Summer of Love and the T-Shirt I bought proclaimed it.  I think it was soon after this that I began trying to distance myself some from this scene.  We were not part of the Summer of Love, but were trying to present otherwise, it seems.  Just a bunch of kids trying to be something they weren’t.

I recall Crosby used the same set-up to Almost Cut My Hair as he had during the acoustic shows.  It came off as hollow.

Also blogged on this date . . .
