After watching Neil Young doing his annual benefit for the Bridge School the other night, it made me go to the archives and dig out some pictures from a couple of his shows that I photographed.
One show was January 5, 1972 at the Milwaukee Auditorium and another was November 14, 1976 at the Dane County Coliseum in Madison, Wisconsin.
Neil always comes with a good band and the shows were full of energy. A picture I wish I had taken was of his bus which was covered in wood trim on the outside at the Madison show. At the Milwaukee show he had on stage an amazing pipe organ. I wonder why I didn't take a picture of that!

This is my 25th blog today!! Time goes by quickly. Today, we have our first regular season Packer game of the year against the San Francisco 49ers at Lambeau Field.
The attached photographs include a couple from 1989 when a Chicago Bear football great named Walter Payton was racing sport cars at Road America in Elkhart Lake. I remember Walter being very nice and really having fun driving his car. If he was still with us, who knows what he could have accomplished in racing too. He was one of the best in football even though he was a Chicago Bear!!
This past week we all found out that the American LeMans series and the Daytona Prototype Series will merge in 2014. My hope is that we have some pretty race cars to watch because I never liked the look of the Daytona Prototype cars until this past year. The new Corvettes looked good and fast but the ALMS cars really are more pleasing to my eyes.
Maybe Dan Gurney shown here on his motorcycle can help design some nice new cars.
Enjoy the football today and Go Packers!!

These are photographs from the second day, April 15, 1972, of the Wisconsin Music Festival, held at the University of Wisconsin Fieldhouse in Madison.
Day 2 was a big day with Linda Ronstadt, Kris Kristofferson, Pattie Santos with It's a Beautiful Day, and Ramblin Jack Elliott and Rosalie Sorrels returned for more fun.
There are a lot of photographs with this blog. It was a great day and a very memorable show for me. A lot of beer cans were on the floor of that dressing room!
