Could I please become a member of your "Spit Club" ?

Pretty sure that is from a series of pix of Robert at Pappy and Harriets Bar in Pioneertown, California Just outside of Joshua Tree.2005-06?

We were inside by noon that day as well. It was utter pandemonium. Pontiac, Oakland Cty police and security guards had no control over anything, seems to me they just went with the flow and only manhandled the really flipped out folks.It was just party city.We left and re-entered off and on throughout the day.There were well over 150,000 people there just to be there tix or not.Our seats were up in the nosebleed section and that was after waiting 18 1/2 hours in line in windy 20 degree weather on the tix selling date. After 30 + years the memories are foggy at best( as my head was) but it was like a mini Woodstock.I was 23 yrs old in '77 and the younger generation hippies were a rowdy bunch, responsible for the firecracker bit. The firecrackers started up and I remember Robert coming out and saying to "stop it !" They would not go on if firecrackers persisted. The fireworks stopped, maybe just a couple went off after, and those folks got their azz beat by the folks nearest them.IIRC Jimmy was pretty buzzed that night, we could tell the rest of the band was getting a bit miffed at him. We were trying to record the concert so we had to be careful, but the concert was so loud that our mics were overwhelmed.All we got were wooshing sounds and alot of Bonzos heavy hitting drums.We had binocs and am pretty sure that Bonzos hands were bleeding after his solo drumming without sticks ! The Silverdome acoustics were terrible anyhow.Being there and seeing all the love for Zeppelin was amazing. If my scanner wasn't dead I could post what pics and newsprint I have here.I didn't think that they stayed in DetRiot that night as we ladies went looking for them and couldn't find them in any of the old haunts. It was truly a night that will be inprinted in my mind forever ! Thanks Steve, for the memories, buddy...
