    Smuggling my camera and lenses into the Florida Theater with the help of Tamara, but not taking one picture.  Giving Tamara one of my tickets so she could sit 8 rows from GFR, and not being stuck in the balcony.
     
    Zep99, my buddy George Christopher, RickDC, Ray Rodriguez
     
    Telling Mark Farner in Charlotte 1998 "you guys kicked ass" and then apologizing.
     
    Eating lunch with Don and Sunny all by myself (until other people showed up) in Greenville 1998.  Having Don hand me a drum stick after his solo.
     
    Stan & Tia Pace.  Don was right when he told me Stan was a pain in the butt  :)
     
    Having one of my photos used for a Mark Farner CD.
     
    Seeing Grand Funk 5 times in 1998
     
    Having Mark look at me in Myrtle Beach, 2000 hold out his hand and say "Hey.....I know you."

    • Yep, I sure do remember becoming Gary's smuggler for the day!  Thanks again for exchanging tickets, Gary, as it is still much appreciated almost a decade later.  Believe it or not, today I am wearing the GFR t-shirt I got autographed at The Florida Theatre that very same day.  ;D

    Those really were the good old days for Roadkillers, weren't they?  I'm hoping this new forum will both take us back to the time when everybody got along, and help us create pleasant new memories with friends old and new.  I, for one, long ago became tired of bickering and feuding about every little thing, which of course got especially nasty after nGFR started.  The "official" list has nothing on Roadkill, and never did.  RK just got off track, if you'll excuse the pun, but now's as good a time as any to start over again, and I very much look forward to doing so.  In fact, I'm very excited at the prospect!

    Let's all make a real effort to put our differences behind us, and enjoy the music and comaradarie again, shall we?
