Hi everyone..It's been awhile since I've been around. Looking at loads of new comments and then saw Donnie! For those young touchdeads who like the 90's over the 70's- good for you. Everyone is allowed their preference and opinion. Maybe my problem with the 90's was watching Jer struggle with weight, addiction and that God awful MIDI crap. Or maybe it was the 90's "fans". Different times. I'll take 77 over the 90's all day and I suspect most Heads will too. It's always fun to have different opinions, otherwise life would be boring.
