I was there for that show as well. I got engaged at that show... Didn't end 
 up getting married, though. We broke up the day before our wedding in 
1973. It  worked out OK, though... a few years later I met my wife. I've been 
with Karen  for 31 years.

That’s very true. 
I was fortunate enough to hear Mike  Pinder land that atral plane ………right 
in the Baltimore Civic  center…1972 
Ask Frank, he was there  too…

True, you can't fly a Mellotron...  a little ungainly for that, but thay 
CAN take you for a pretty good ride  tho' yes?  Ask Pinder! 
"He'll take you up, he'll bring  you down,
He'll plant your feet back on the ground.
He'll fly so  high, he'll swoop so low.
He'll fly his astral plane.
He'll take  you trips around the bay.
He'll bring you back the same  day." 
Okay, they're talking about  Timothy Leary, but they sure used a Mellotron 
to DO it!  Can't  ignore that last note, brass(?), turning the whole way 
down in pitch and  sounding very airplane-flyby-like!  Weeeeee!
