at Marietta College, Ohio Homecoming a couple of concerts before Duane died. We went on a lark, a friend had heard about it and luckily we had a car and made the trip; three of us, age 16, 17, and 19. Something I treasure and rememeber well. Attending events and concerts was easy esp. if you were connected to a college.

ETA: saw the band perform in Oct. 1971.
