They did a show at the big fieldhouse in the city where I grew up.
We had backstage passes (long story) and got to hang out after the show.
We were all under 18 at the time, so Floyd (drummer), Skip (extra keyboardist), and Mike (guitar) acted like big brothers to make sure we weren't drinking.
They were all really nice guys. Treated all 4 of us like we belonged there for the entire hour plus.
