I didn't know that. Wouldn't it be cool to tip a pint or too with Ray some day?

Back in the early 70's The Kinks played at UCONN . A female friend of mine was a HUGE fan , and absolutely adored Ray . She attended the concert , and afterwards , on the way home , stopped off at a convenience store for a snack . She was shopping , when suddenly she heard some commotion at the front of the store . There was Ray Davies standing a few feet away from her . The clerk had locked the doors to the store because lots of fans had flocked to the front of the store to see Ray . There she was , locked in a 7-11 with her all time favorite musician ! She talked with him , and he posed for pictures ( holding a box of Post Toasties as I recall ! ) . Apparently the clerk called police for some help , and they showed up promptly to escort Ray out of the store and into the waiting road van ( UPS-like truck ) . Great , huh ?
