1. I was very young when I saw Tommy
Probably 5-6 years old, at a drive in theatre.

Tina Turner's lips still creep me out. And that scene where he's ripping the fingernails off that lady.

:scared:

7. JCS is my favorite
I remember I was 5 when my older sister brought it home in 1970. I got addicted to it and knew all the songs. My favorite is "Heaven on Their Minds".

6. Drive-By Truckers
'Southern Rock Opera' is one of the greatest albums I have ever heard. It is so parallel to my life during the late 70's/early 80's it's eerie.

10. I have one of their songs
Sink Hole. Pretty good tune. Came on one of my Bonnaroo CD's. Didn't know they had a rock opera out though. Have to check it out.
