Thank you very much and God bless you.
Happy birthday Peter, you made the best live album ever.
Flame away.
Live a Budokan (Cheap Trick) and Metallica’s video recorded outdoor event at the Roman Coliseum in Nimes, France were good too.
Today is also Vladimir Lenin’s birthday. Not a coincidence that Lenin’s birthday is the same day as Earth Day.
Also born on April 22:
Immanuel Kant
Robert Oppenheimer
Eddie Albert
Glenn Campbell
Jack Nicholson
Glen's guitar solos through the years"
btw - Frampton and Glen were good friends and when Glen passed, Peter was all over media gushing about his love for him and his talent.
Blew my mind seeing Cheap Trick in a High School gym in northern Minnesota in 82.
One of the GOAT albums.
My wife would have been 69, my dad 98, today. ✝️
I saw them on the Budokan tour at Bucknell of all places. I was 15. What a time.
I saw them and the Cars together in 82. I saw the Cars in 81 at a college auditorium that seated about 400. It was great.
Than kew!
“Friday Night in San Francisco” was an beyond-amazing concert:

“Glen Campbell was born on this day in 1936. He may be the best all around entertainer we got to witness in our lives”
Here is just a great version of Wichita Lineman. He really was special especially his guitar chops. I’m pretty sure Glenn was experiencing some memory loss at this point (2008) as at the 1:20 min. mark you can see the lyrics scrolling on the stage monitor. The young kid to Glen’s right on rhythm guitar is his son.

I saw Frampton live about four years ago. He was awesome. And by the way, today is MY birthday too!!!
Their live album Humble Pie - Performance: Rockin' the Fillmore (full album) is one of the better live albums from that era.
Too bad we weren’t able to see Peter and Steve Marriott put back Humble Pie.
