Bloodrock cancelled, so Mandrill headlined, which finds me mildly shaking my head even now. Unfortunately, the Five were well into their downward spiral by this time, and their set was, sorry to say, rather indifferent and perfunctory save the occasional flash of stagecraft: Wayne Kramer's leaps, spins and splits come to mind. Actually, I'm making their performance sound more energetic than it actually was. But I WAS there.<br />Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14980657986473484308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12527609.post-48637586590460208942010-10-12T12:49:46.718-05:002010-10-12T12:49:46.718-05:00In the Crawdaddy ad from the 04/08/71 issue: The b...In the Crawdaddy ad from the 04/08/71 issue: The band Chelsea (listed as "Decca Recording Artists") was a band Peter Criss was at that time.

Boy, that would cover the bases, wouldn't it? <br /><br />I'm sure the fan bases of all three groups got along well, too, as they enjoyed the warm Summer breeze of the Island of Staten.
