Place: FW Comments: John, "uncanny" is an understatement! You could be his stand-in/double!
Place: Monterey, CA Comments: Jack, Janis and I never had what you'd call a "real" date, but I've been in her vicinity on two ocassions. In June, 1967 I was in Monterey,Calif. at Fort Ord - completing my Basic Training. On a weekend pass Russell Pendleton and I went into town. The Monterey Pop Festival was going full bore; and over the fence at the fairgrounds you could hear the voices of Jimi Hendrix, Janis J. and others. We didn't realize at the time that "history" was being made. [true story] Fast forward to 1969 ... I find myself at a party in Corpus Christi and Janis is there! She says if anyone in this room can impersonate Tom Jones "Raise Your Hand". Of course (back then) my resemblance to him was uncanny, so my hand shot up in the air. "Come on over here and DANCE", she ordered me. Here is an old filmstrip (I'll always cherish) of what happened next: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ib2b4BOZIQ
