Anyone from the DRL Army attend the US Festival in '83 ?

I did - I was 13 years old and it was my second time seeing Diamond Dave. It's a classic that I will never forget!

Your profile says you are 28. So that would make you 6 for the US fest. Either you are full of shit or your parents are fucked up losers for letting a 6 year old go to the US fest.

Surely sure sure you can say D to the L to the R. DAVID LEE ROSS may not have been at the US festival. But in 19 and 83 David Lee Ross was at the ME Festival.

Hello again good people. This is your street preacher, David Lee Ross, here to contribute to this fine board of rock music fans.

Yes. I can remember 1983 like it was 1984. If you get my drift. The year was rockin and rollin to the Van Halen Brothers tunes. It reminded of a time when Chuck Berry was shufflin and scufflin from the jukebox. Those were some good days. Ah yes, the US festival. The gathering of people who enjoy a good show. Not unlike the Social Sweet Soriety Sisters fund raising campaign for the Alma Lette Soriety. And what a performance it was. Do you know what it's like? It's like when you get done making lime jello. Well, actually fnish stirring it befo you put it in the refrigerator and wait for it to get hard. You see, when you put it in and wait, it's like the US Festival seen from a kalidescope of memories aand good good times. If that doesn't remind you, see it this way. Remember when we had Lincoln Logs and your brother had no business putting things together and you would build a nice log cabin only to have him build a slum right next to you complete with his action figure winos. Am I right. Or when on the 4th of July Poppa got everyone of us sparklers and he stuck it in a apple only to have it moved down the block then over to the next town where Aunt Betsy was basting a turkey. Haha! And who was that turkey?

You see,your street preacher David Lee Ross the Mathematician of the equation is giving you good people some rationalization. Feeling the sensation like you had a brain operation. Or when the birds flly south for the willy chilly winter only to discover when you are lying in bed that they could be migrating north depending on where you lay and if you are sharing a bed with your siblings. But once you got old enough you were allowed your own bed. That is like going to the market to buy sardines that you know that's not going on my pizza. Because it will taste like sushi on a whooper that's not cooked. Am I right?

And when we could get all these people together, we should make an offering. I was going to contribute a check in the amount of $$$$ and $$ only to see that it can be rerouted back into my savings because all the good people paid for their tickets and money was made. We met our financial goal for that day. And my account is now $$$$ and $$$ more than it was if I was going to let it be donated to the DLR Army. But your generosity allows your street preacher to have these intended funds serve a better purpose. My fat wallet. Just a joke my good people! So until next time. Tweedle dee and tweedle dum.


Above is the intended check originally donated to the DLR Army but now is rerouted for another good cause because you folks are so generous. Only in America!

WTF?

Well, I've never been to it (obviously, I wasn't even born yet!), but I was at the same venue they played in a couple of months ago!
