Rick still lives there. That's only around 70 miles from Rockford. So, he's been an Illinois boy his while life.
We opened for them in the early to mid 80s. I'd say 1983, but that might not be it.
Four nicer guys, you will not meet. Tom Peterson seemed shy, but still friendly. The other guys were nice, supportive & funny.
