I was at this concert! Flew from Italy specifically to attend this show and the NYC 40th anniversary show. The NYC show was cancelled because of hurricane Sandy but at least I had the opportunity to be at this one of a kind live performance. After the show I had the luck to meet Jules lovely wife and son Julius and Richie and Anna Marie and invited to the backstage celebration where I had a great time and meeting the rest of the band and families and hang out with other hard core fans of the band. I’m very fond of a photo with Sam Judd (aka Count Culo, R.I.P.) and me there. One enchanted evening for sure! Thank you BOC for being an essential part of my life.

I was lucky enough to have attended this show at The Landmark- and sitting approximately at the camera's viewpoint. It was my 23rd time catching these guys. The sound quality at the venue was amazing- kudos to the sound engineer! I had VIP tickets for the show the next night, but Hurricane Sandy attacked Manhattan. The 40th gig was obviously canceled. Rescheduled for the following week, but I had come in from out of town and there's only so many vacation days in a year. The word was to batten down the hatches. I was staying at the Marriott Courtyard in Times Square and figured I'd better get some supplies to wait out the storm. Well, I had pre-gamed by that time. My food selection of beef jerky, salted cashews, a sixer of Grolsch and a pint of bourbon reflected my decision making abilities. As the night wore on and the storm continued to rage I entertained thoughts of standing in the middle of Times Square- just to say that I did it. (For example, if I ever wanted to post a comment on YouTube.) I had gotten to the point of pocketing the bourbon and tying my sneaks until one tiny slice of non-pickled brain matter whispered..."It's not THAT the wind blows jackwagon; it's WHAT the wind blows." So, I stayed in and woke the next morning in a foggy haze. Good times, man...

My list of the best five songs of the Stoned Age is (in no particular order):
Comfortably Numb
Astronomy
Flaming Telepaths
Can't Find My Way Home
Little WIng
If I extend the list to 10 I add:
Court of the Crimson King
Nature's Way
Radar Love
A Song For You
Condition (Newbury's-or Hipchen's-version. 1st Edition's gaudy imitation almost ruined it)
Each of these works touched my soul at the exact right instant. Note that only one act/band gets two songs.
Disclaimer: I read City in the Autumn Stars back then, too, boys. ;-)
