On September 4, 1972 a few bands played outside in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. They were REO Speedwagon, Brian Lee Band and the English band Flash.

It was a beautiful day for an outdoor concert. Have a look at REO Speedwagon here with the other bands coming up soon.

Everyone played on a flatbed semi trailer for the stage!

Those were big hair days in 1972.

Also if you haven't noticed, someone that doesn't exist (michaeljohnsonxui52304) apparently deleted my Rich Zimmermann and Rich Zimmermann Photography Facebook accounts. After 5 hours of trying to figure it out, I gave up and restored an old Rich Zimmermann Facebook page from years ago. So, friend me again please if I haven't friended you.

Thanks,

Rich Zimmermann

My last blog was on the Indy Cars at Road America for the XPL Grand Prix.

To get into one of those Indy Cars you have to move up the Indy Car ladder and it's feeder series. That would be the Indy NXT, USF Pro 2000 and of course starting out in go karts that all Indy Car drivers still train in.

The June 22nd weekend I spent only a few hours at the track thanks to the heat and chemotherapy fun. Hopefully I'm done with chemotheraphy for a while and more tests to come to figure out where I stand.

Proof that the ladder series works is Myles Rowe who won Saturday in Indy NXT at Iowa Speedway! First win for him and we will see him in an Indy Car soon I believe. Couple photos here from 2021 at Road America when Myles was talking with my Vintage Indy Registry folks.

Enjoy a look at the USF Pro 2000 cars having a go at the track at Road America.

Thanks,

Rich Zimmermann
