Twenty-three years ago, Mike and I were rather near each other
Interesting to note Mike's reference to the 1982 Gary US Bonds concert at the old Dal rink in Halifax. I remember walking by when the concert was happening heading to a friend's place in a neighbouring street. Having spent a decade in Halifax from when I was 18 to 28 when Mike was about the same age I suspect if we every meet it will be "oh, it's you" as we recollect years of weekends ill-spent down at the Seahorse.

Hey, that arrow looks familiar! Did you know Teddy and Jeddy? They are friends of a friend - whenever I saw Teddy we did the handshake from 'Animal House'.
Interestingly, another bloggy-Jersey shore connection, Dave and I were at the U2 concert at the CNE in 1987 and Steve Van Zandt (as well as Los Lobos) was an opening act.

And Al and I almost met at a wedding. No wait a minute, we <i>did</i> meet at wedding. I'm sure there's still folks wondering what the hell happened there ;-)

That was the best blog-initiated event ever, David.

Bloggers crashing weddings. I smell a rejected Hollywood screenplay.

Speaking of Halifax, greetings from there! Read the beer menu at Maxwell Plum's but didn't indulge. Perhaps later this afternoon...

You must know Dan Hennigar?? He was there when you were there and he is still there.

When do I get to go to Halifax and not see our friend Mike? And what's this with Maxwell Plums? I feel like I am missing all the fun.
