I'd like to think that's what my Time & Place journal is like actually. I've written about some music history there, some personal stories, different cities, s
hit I even wrote an entry in the form of a stage play. Granted it's all about music in some way, but I think it's pretty varied.

Okay, here goes:
My first gig was seeing Roy Orbison with my dad at the South Shore Music Circus in Massachusetts, which is an outdoor, theater-in-the-round style venue. The Crickets opened. I don't remember much more because I was pretty young. I do still see my dad though.
The end.
