OT: Humbuck, you playin' the Tattoo Convention/Show here in Philly this weekend with Murphy's Law?

 

[Humbuck]

No zensurfer, I've been out of Murphy's Law for years...late '04 I guess. I have played a Philly tat convention or two with murph in the past though! Although my favorite Philly shows were either the Khyber or uspstairs at the Troc. Cheers, thanks for asking.:salude How'd you even remember?

Ha I know what you mean. So many great shows right in the the middle of NYC. Tickets were about $2.50 for orchestra and $1.50 for the bleachers. Or you could sit outside on the rocks for free. Many night the show was better out there if you know what I mean. Thanks for memories Humbuck.

Schaefer was a popular brand of beer in the 60's and 70's, their sales chant was "Schafer...is the...one beer to have...when your having more than one."

I'm showing my age now!

Get a bleacher seat in Yankee Stadium on a nice hot day. They sell Ballantine tall boys. Only 9 bucks a can lol.

Yeah, it was right up there with Reingold.

Ahhhh, back in my younger (college) days....the cheap beers we drank, since we couldn't afford anything else. Stroh's 15 packs, Red White & Blue, Mickey's Big Mouths, Wiedemann, Little Kings, the list goes on and on....:salude

 

[toxpert]

Texas Pride (before it became a select microbrew). Really good stuff was Jax, Falstaff,...

Genesee Screamers ahh the bathroom trips the next day. Pabst Blue Ribbon at 15 and the troubled mornings.
