>> A PARISHIONER WRITES

This concerns a tale in the Storytime section of the site regarding a riot at a Steve Miller Band gig in Richmond, VA. Parishioner Curbut comments ...

"C'mon dude- Miller never said that stuff cause it didn't happen. I was there and it was 1974, not 1969. No bulldozer, no Star Spangled Banner, no rock star putting a halt to the "festivities." Lots of cops, fire, destroyed government vehicles. Some injuries; lots of arrests. The show definitely did not go on and the riot eventually petered out in the face of overwhelming show of force."

So that clears that one up.

Pip, pip
