Alright, how about this one!CHICAGO!When I was a young buck, I played in horn bands, and Chicago was the best! That was until Terry Kath died. Then Peter Cetera took over, and they went down the toilet. I saw their current version toninght on HDTV, and they were very good.O.K., I guess you guys are waiting for my Terry Kath story, so here goes:The drummer in my band came from Chicago, and he knew Terry Kath. So, when "Chicago" was exploding due to ego problems, he contacted my drummer and said he was going to do a solo album. He sent demos to my drummer, and he wanted *my* drummer to play on his solo album.My drummer took off on an exteneded vacation, and actually flew around on Chicago's plane. He said a "LOT" of cocaine was going on.So, he comes back, telling us that Terry Kath was doing a "Hendrix" style album, and says he is going to L.A. to play on the record.Two days later, Terry Kath was dead.True story.R.I.P. Terry Kath. You were the best.Ern

ahem..... ENYA (I've had a couple of reviews where they apologetically said I sounded Enya-ish. I didn't know why they would feel that was not a good thing. That was before I'd heard her music, too. Now I have, I say: 'thanks!')
