Sounds a lot like it. There was 2-4 years that I was in the Cave virtually every day. I was a regular on the dart boards, the pool table and most often the bridge table. If you remember a guy who through darts like a baseball, that was me.

Wasn't a regular but shot some pool and threw darts on occasion. Was a comforting place especially on rainy weeknights when it wasn't jamned with folks for a show.

Then we almost had to have been there at the same time at some point. I worked the door at the Cave for a lot of those shows. I good friend of mine , Dale White, owned the Species and I went there a lot.

Btw, Dale just died about 6 weeks ago.

Sorry to hear about Dale. He was a crusty cranky soul but in a good and fun way. He and I had a teasing back and forth relationship that bordered on a love/hate relationship:D

I was a dart thrower and when I came in to throw, he would greet me with, "oh no, he's back again" 😏
 
If you've never met anyone who has seen Zep....how ya doing? The Crunge. The Funk rock beginning.

I was fortunate to see Linda twice. I consider myself to be a lucky man.

Really like Linda Ronstadt a lot. She and the Earl Scruggs Review had a double concert in Carmichael. The concert started late because basketball practice ran long. When Linda started her part of the concert, she apologized for the late start and blamed the extended basketball practice. She got booed. She actually looked startled by the boos. But she went on and gave a great performance.

My first opportunity to see Bonnie was at the Agora in Atlanta back in the day. Unfortunately, she never showed and I had to listen to the opening act for 2 hrs...Catfish Hodge the worst band ever

But I did get to see her many years later at Memorial Hall.

Here is a great duet with Bonnie and Delbert McClinton:

This is my favorite solo album of his.

My brother and I went to see Lou at Ovens Auditorium in Charlotte in 89 when he was touring to support that album. We went down that afternoon and hung out, I swiped a shirt from rack in the basement that belonged to someone on the custodial staff, had a patch that said Ovens Auditorium on one side and a patch with the worker's name on the other. That night, after the show, I donned the shirt so I could get backstage, which I did. Spoke to Lou and Mo Tucker but at some point somebody tapped me on the shoulder and it was a guy wearing the same shirt. Busted! I told him why I had done what I did and gave him $20. He was pleased. I've still got that shirt but it doesn't fit me anymore...
