My technique was product of elimination or recognizing specific individuals or knowing three person bands

Bands I missed proved that Doobie Brothers was not a good strategy/

Saw Steve Miller twice at Fillmore West 1969 and 1970 and loved the albums but the concerts Steve Miller sets were disappointing; not Elvis Costello I'm POed and don't want to play today at Berkeley Community Theatre or Lee Michaels at Fillmore West the roadies broke my fucking organ and this piano doesn't do it for me, fuck this place bad, just disappointing.
