@RealJamesWoods Watching USA vs Australia soccer? The pregame ceremony was incredible...50,000 people singing the Star Spangled Banner at the top of their lungs. Chills!
@sciencegirl I have that reel to reel and used to have that EQ and cassette deck...plus a Pioneer turntable, Pioneer headphones and huge Pioneer speakers that weighed 90 lbs apiece. Rock & roll never sounded so good.
@fasc1nate There was an ice house in town when I was a kid. They cut ice blocks from the Missouri in the winter and stored them in a whse. They also sold beer which they stored on the ice. My grandma had an icebox.
On this day in 1971 the Montreux Casino in Switzerland burned down during a Frank Zappa show leading to the composition of Smoke on the Water by Deep Purple who were there to record their Machine Head album.
@trumplicans2024 Early 70's there was a Mobil station and a Sinclair station half a block apart and they frequently had "gas wars" where they'd have gas for 25-26 cents/gal.
