HAPPY BIRTHDAY LINDSEY

...Buckingham that is; born on this date in 1949. Saw him with Fleetwood Mac back on their first tour(75or76) with him & Stevie - opening act for Jefferson Starship!! Man, what a great show, they kicked the Starship's ass all over the place, even that's who we went to see. Probably one of the best shows I've ever seen.

Also, happy b-day to Chubby Checker in 1941. Hard to believe there's only 8 years difference between him and Lindsey. Seems like they'd be a generation apart, not that close. Strange.

And also on this date Woody Guthrie died at age 55. So I guess Arlo has outlived him, hopefully
he won't come down with the Huntington's Disease that killed Woody; have seen Arlo a number of times over the years, and he always puts on a good show, tours with his son & daughter in the band.
