Music: Re: [Classic_Rock_Forever] 40 years ago today...Some stupid with a flare gun burned the place to the ground

I knew I read this:

Jon: Your responses have touched my heartAugust 30, 2011

A personal message to you from Jon:

Just a quick line or two from an absolutely overwhelmed, gratified and humbled musician.

Your responses to the news of my condition have touched my heart in a way that has truly helped to make my life a better place to be than it had occasionally threatened to become these last few weeks.

Your wonderful messages wishing me strength and courage have given me even more strength and courage – and so much more than you can ever know.

I read many of them with tears in my eyes, grateful for this cast-iron proof of the innate goodness of the human being, and grateful to every single one of you for your invaluable support.

This message goes out too to all the similarly wonderful folk on other websites whose support has been equally warm and strong and I want you all to know how greatly heartened and comforted I am by all this.

The treatment continues and I am confident and being supported by my glorious family and an amazing group of friends.

See you soon.

God bless
Jon

Coincidentally, I bought tickets to see Deep Purple this week.

This will be the first time for me. I`ve seen a pile of those legacy groups
over the years, but these guys have eluded me till now. I`m well aware of
the current lineup, and am good with that. Don Airey was a struggle at
first. Certainly not because of ability, he`s very good, if not as
adventurous as Mr. Lord.

Now, as long as they don`t bow out, I`ll be a happy camper come Feb 16th.

Yes, December 3rd, 1971, Frank Zappa and the Mothers were playing the best
place in town, the Montreux Casino, when some stupid with a flare gun burned
the place to the ground.

..and a group af musicians were given the inspiration for a classic song
with a riff every young guitarist wanted to learn.

We looked at Deeep Purple's "Made in Japan" live album and the story how we
almost never got to hear it!
