Slide show at source.

When we worked Woodstock 94, one morning they called us in early since the bands started early.

We get in there and this guy has his girlfriend on his shoulders right down front. They were telling him to get her down and he would not get her down.

There were these two old hippies down front that were at the first Woodstock. I told them, "Spread out! I'm coming in!" I jumped into the crowd.

Someone reached out and grabbed that girl by the wrist and pulled her off him.

I circled around in the crowd. The guy was heading toward the mosh pit. I grabbed him by the wrist before he got in there, reeled him and threw him up against the barricade. I put my hand under his behind and boosted him up. then the guys pulled me out.

Someone threw a wad of muddy straw and hit me in the face. There was a black guy hosing down the crowd. I tapped him on the shoulder. I turned around and hosed me off.

But I saw him again at Lollapalooza in Des Moines in '96. He was on the crew cart. When he saw me, he stopped the cart, jumped off and ran over to give me a big hug. He said, "Tex, how ya doing?"

He remembered me. And I am lucky to remember this.

BTW, I saw a guy wearing a "Poison" T-shirt at the local Wal Mart. He told me his brother worked for Upstaging, the company that hauls the stages around the country.

When we worked Pearl Jam in Chicago, it was the same stage as Woodstock 94. ;)
