BOS Malcolm McDowell and "Ludwig Van" in Clockwork Orange. We (at age 16) got in to see it (despite the X rating) without being carded. We were so proud of ourselves.

Meanwhile, Pete T's a hippie gypsy!

BOS #3 for me, too.  But I'm gonna have to skip out at the break, drive to Sacto for a lunch meeting & get back to Oakland for a job interview at 4:00 (although not a job I really think I have a shot at, but at least it's interview practice for the right job whenever that comes).

Got in just in time for the Band and Traffic tunes, but groaned audibly when Ginger mentioned having played David Crosby's Laughing from If Only I Could Remember My Name. Great record, with an all-star cast of Bay area musicians (Garcia, Lesh, Kreutzman, Slick, Kantner, Kaukonen, Freiberg, Rolie, Joni, Nash, and Young, to name a few) although the closest it had to a hit was Traction in the Rain. That album was the first thing I ever won from a radio station.

I'd like to hear that album. Is it available in a non-vinyl format?

Flashback. Not sure it was the first thing I won but I remember winning a sandwich maker or some such thing from KDIA which I think was in Oakland and my mother was kind enough to drive me to get it as I wasn't old enough to drive.

I'd also love to hear that at some point.

First thing I ever won from a radio station: tickets to the Pac Bell New Year's Eve extravaganza in 1996.  I was still new to the city and Live 105 was doing a My Three Songs with Oasis's "Supersonic," David Bowie's "Young Americans," and Bush's "Glycerine."  The NYE show was amazing -- my first and only time seeing Chris Isaak live -- and my only regret was that I didn't know anyone in SF well enough to invite them along for company.

well, as long as we're telling radio-station-prize stories: I won one of the legendary WMCA "Good Guy" sweatshirts

(http://www.radioevans.com/timages/page/sweat.jpg)

in 1969 -- one of the last batch they ever gave away, as it turned out.

The only other radio prize I won was a pair of tix to see Grand Funk at Madison Square Garden in Dec of 1970.  We were near the speakers and I was deaf for 2 days.
