    NO THEY WONT DO   And MAKE SURE TO PROTECT YOUR EYES.  ITS NO JOKE.   Only safe time is the 4 minutes that the Sun is TOTALLY COVERED BY THE MOON.   That is not much.  that is the highlight of the event BUT, DANGEROUS AS HELL TO LOOK DURING PARTIAL.  NEED THOSE GLASS'S.  MANY LIBRARIES ARE GIVING THEM OUT. Sure they rae online, we got ours that way.  We are right in the path of the total eclipse.  Buffalo, Rochester and Syracuse are all in it. I am in the Rochester area.  About 25 miles SE.  I am just hoping that we do not get  cloudy day.  That would suck.

    They are closing schools and many business's

    I got some UV glasses on Amazon that are safe for the eclipse. Wish we were having a total eclipse in my area, but no such luck. It will be about 91-2 percent, which isn't bad. Interesting fact is that temperature will drop about 10 degrees during this.

  2. If anyone is interested, Sirius XM will be broadcasting U2's final and 40th show at Sphere on Sunday, March 17th and quite fitting for St. Paddy's day. U2's channel is U2-X and #32.  Show is at 8pm ET.

    U2 Brings Sphere Residency To Triumphant Close - https://ultimateclassicrock.com/u2-sphere-residency-last-show/

    Great final show last night. They brought Daniel Lanois on stage to do "One" with them as he produced "Achtung Baby." As last night was show #40 for the band at Sphere, they couldn't have ended their residency any better with a performance of "40."  Glad I got to see them on 10/18 for show #9. One of the greatest concert experiences I've ever had and I've been to a lot of shows. The sound and visuals are mind blowing.

    Actually, we do know. Who told you this rumor? It's absolute bollocks. Eric Clapton and Duane Allman played guitar on the 1970 "Layla" recording. Full stop.

    Actually JP did play the ending solo on "Layla" once the piano comes in. But, not the studio version but on the ARMS concerts mini-tour with Clapton and Beck. Glad I got to see this in person. First time I ever saw JP live.

    WOW! First the 1978 Van Halen drop on Christmas and now THIS!!! Spectacular news.

    Just watched the VH footage. Great footage, even if not complete but great to have this. Great performance by the band and lots of energy. Sound quality is also very good and synched well. Sound is quite  muddy for the final song and YRGM." Worth watching. Thanks for mentioning this Strider as I didn't know about it. Only saw them once and at the former New Haven Coliseum which was imploded about 15 years ago. The place was kind of a dump. They had a parking garage and most people hung on the roof of the garage before shows to party. But, you had to be careful with all the broken beer and liquor bottles. It was always a sea of broken glass. Such memories. This VH show was my first concert in October, 1982 and a very memorable one. I couldn't believe how loud they were. DLR was quite humorous during the concert.

    If you bought it in 1980 you probably got the same one I got around the same time at a record shop in Killeen, Texas in 1981...the Phoenix Records release with the HR Giger cover.

    That's the one I have! Definitely a very bizarre and unique cover!

    Absolutely. If you have a halfway decent collection of bootlegs, especially 1975, then odds are you have an Artie tape in your collection.

    His 1975 tapes were available long before the soundboards came out. The first Artie tape I acquired was the famous Montreal 1975 bootleg. First issued on the Amazing Kornyfone label in 1975 (TAKRL 2960), then reissued on Phoenix Records and other labels in the 1980s.

    This is the very first bootleg by Led Zeppelin I acquired in a local independent record store. The sound quality is quite good, but the album cover to mine is different. It's quite cool and unfortunately with a Google search, I couldn't locate it.  I got this probably around Spring of 1980. I had only been into Led Zeppelin around 6 months ago, when I got my first bootleg and so many more to follow!
