Mellotronists

Jeff , were you on drugs ?  (of course you were) It was an afternoon
at Plastic Fantastic in Brynn Mawr on a Saturday and Daevid Allen made
me ride with him back and forth from the Hot Club in Phila at 15 mph
the whole way (think he was going 90 in his head).  We interrupted the
performance when I made Daevid leave and he just had to say good bye
to Bob  (whom he'd never met in person but shared many
acquaintences).  Fripp was more approachable then, depending on who he
was hanging with, as now.
