Wow, cool bio. I'm sure every time you mention any one of these baby boomer musicians, you'll treat them the same way. Like, Jimmy Page, famous for kidnapping a 14-year old, and keeping her in captivity as a sex slave. Or John Lennon, who beat his wives so viciously he gave one of them a miscarriage. You missed that part in your mention of the Beatles.
