They're like the horse that finished in the middle of the pack ... they weren't the worst, but they didn't win either. a lot of people like them though and good for them.

richieb Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 11/17/67 - the world famous Who and The Buckinghams played a concert in a KC suburban high school gym. I’m guessing they weren’t world famous just yet - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Fleetwood Mac and Bruce Springsteen weren't hogging up so much space, I'd have The Who on my most overrated list. I'll take the "Guess Who" over "the Who" any day. The "Burton Cummings Theatre" is but a 10 min. walk from my house. Grand, well over 110 year old bldg. Also pleasantly surprised to read this. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/saskatchewan/burton-cummings-moose-jaw-1.4948061 I first knew them as 'Chad Allen and the Reflections', playing in bars where we were all underage. Him, Randy Bachman et al will probably never have to pay for a drink or a meal in this city for life. This doesn't mean that they would be in my top 5 - 40 top favorite bands.

Mallette Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Folks, not sure who disappeared the original and I've had no complaints here, though as you all know reviving threads is not allowed. In this case, I am not going to do anything here as I think this an important topic. Just don't post anything to make it go away again. If another mod disappears it, it's done as we don't reverse each other. Dave 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spent the entire week prior to the 4th of July weekend in self-quarantine. The original operation got bumped due to the global situation. I passed, I got my “good cancer” removed from my face. But even now, I can still smell the swab some mornings in the shower... 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
