This week's blog is about the band Heart in 1977 at the Milwaukee Arena.
I thought these photos were already on my website and they were not!!
Check out the young sisters Ann and Nancy Wilson in 1977. Next week I'm doing some photos of Heart from 2009 at Summerfest.
Enjoy and have a great week.
Thanks,

Hope that everyone out there is healthy with all the flu and cold viruses going around. My wife and I have had a really bad cold for a while now. Sucks!
Something good happened. I found a new friend, Konstantinos Takos, in Greece! He is an archivist and historian of everything Uriah Heep. Check out www.uriah-heep.com and if you can contribute anything Heep, please do so.
He made me aware that I didn't have them on my website and I thought I did! So here you go with pictures from a show on February 28, 1973 in Milwaukee.
Dave Byron was their main vocalist. He passed away many years ago.
Check out Uriah Heep here and I'll do some photos from a 2010 show they did at Summerfest soon.
Thanks,

Last week we lost another legend in the world of racing with the passing of Dan Gurney at the age of 89.
Dan was a racer like no other. He is the only American to win in Formula 1 with his own car. That very car and Dan were such a big part of my childhood racing memories. He and Jim Clark were and still are my heroes of Indy car and Formula 1.
Did you know that we can thank Dan Gurney for the opening of a champagne bottle after you win a race? He started that tradition with a win long ago.
Here is a look at Dan in 1991 at Road America with his very fast and race winning Toyota Eagles. The other photo is from the Milwaukee Mile and I'm not sure of the year.
Miss you Dan and thank you for all you have done for racing. AAR racing developed some great machines with your wizard ways.
Thanks,
