Here, together for no good reason: we see the erstwhile tourist killing time, waiting for Sushi Groove (across the street) to open, along with a couple specimens of the family Nepidae that I encountered at Bear Gulch Reservoir in Pinnacles National Monument.
Never one to pass up the chance to win a Stratocaster autographed by Pete, I dug out the the very first video I ever filmed with my GE 1CVC4030E. That camera/recorder ended up being a pain to carry around--not to mention I got tired of being behind the camera instead of in front of it. (I ended up selling it to the hapless George Allen--despite my impassioned disclaimer regarding the system's drawbacks--too bad for you, George!)
Anywho, when I slipped the 25 year-old VHS tape into my player, it was immediately eaten and mangled almost beyond recovery. After multiple repair attempts, I was able to salvage some of the footage and edited this brief clip for submission to thewho.com's "Windmill Contest".

This weekend, the walls of the "Granite Lady" hosted more than 100posters, photos and videos from the Bill Graham archives, now well known as "Wolfgang's Vault"
Gripes were heard about the quality of the reproductions. However, they probably wouldn't have allowed photography of the originals, so I had no complaints.
