July 4th will be upon us before we know it! Flags, fireworks, picnics, families and friends. Of all the 4th of Julys' in my life, one stands out amongst the rest. Buffalo, NY 1978. The first time I saw the Rolling Stones. They were on a bill with Atlanta Rhythm Section, April Wine and Journey. I can still remember this bikerdude who was getting a little sloshed throughout the day. Whenever the other bands would be on stage, he'd be yelling "Stones!" I thought it was pretty funny that as Mick and the boys took the stage, old bikerdude was passed out on the ground! I can hear him now telling all his friends what a great time he had when he 'saw' the Stones! This is one of the shots I took there. Looks like Mick has the whole Sunday edition of the New York Times stuffed down the front of his pants...
