   Do you remember the address? Would be cool to stop by and check out the   
   building!

   a band called The Soul Syndicate later known as Our Brothers Keeper on   
   Columbia Records. In early summer of 1970 our band and the ABB were double   
   booked one night at Rush Up.    
   We played alternating sets. We used their gear since it was already setup. On   
   one set one of their drummers, I think Butch Trucks didn't feel good. They   
   asked if I wanted to sit in. I did although I didn't know their songs. I just   
   followed the other    
   drummer. I wasn't used to playing long blusey songs but got through it. At the   
   time it didn't mean much. I was a young kid. I didn't know who they were. They   
   hadn't hit big yet. In later years I realized what a cool experience that was.   
   One of my fond    
   life memories.
