I flew rock n rollers for a while so feel like I am kinda cheating here. Guess the best of that era was when we flew the Beach Boys for 3 months on tour and really got to be friends with them. Last gig was back East and they really pushed us to come to the show as we did not make all of them. We had no idea what was going on but for the last song we were standing in the wings and Al Jardine pulled the three of us on stage and we sang the song with them. Prolly the highlight of my career in this area. A close second here was flying Rod Stewart. He was nice to work with but sitting backstage drinking sake with his Father was excellent! Next would be flying "The Police" and Sting around. It was always a pretty wild party with them...

Second would have to be when we were in Berlin and when Pink Floyd did "The Wall" concert there. I still have one of the original German posters from this series of concerts.

Lastly was a excellent Moody Blues concert in Missoula Montana (lived in Helena) and the guys we worked with all went so we tagged along. The "magic mushrooms" that they handed around really made it nice!
