    September 1989, we just started our senior year. I was recovering from a bad motorcycle accident and we lost our classmate in car accident. He was a twin so his brother was devastated with all of us. This was our class anthem and it all brought us closer as a class. I used my settlement money to buy kegs of beer and we all left school and went to the mountains to party and be with each other. Rest in Peace Tracy Class of 1989

    Early to mid 80s she left me behind, her being the first of course. She went to a southern state and I found myself checking weather reports for that area; "is the sun shining on her?". I'm retired now and my feelings for her have never changed no matter the time and tide. Not so long ago my son said he had met her. When I asked him to point the way he said "No, keep what you've held on to all this time and still have in your soul". I cant recall the look in eyes ever being so sincere.

    It's Finally Here! Hard Rock Café of Rockford, illinois! Rick Nielsen's Cheap Trick began in Rockford in 1973, and now today August 29, 2024 Hard Rock Café opened featuring Rick Nieksen's checkerboard guitar 🎸 outside 63 ft. Tall 7 tons with Cheap Trick memorabilia inside. Rick was here to flip the switch to light up the guitar 🎸 as it was erected!. A lifetime dream for Rick Nielsen. I'm glad it happened during his lifetime , and during my lifetime. I still remember his father who owned Nielsens Music Shop on 7th Street in Rockford, Illinois. He waited on the customers himself and instilled the love of music 🎶 into his son Rick Nielsen. Rockfords own Cheap Trick. Rock on 🎸
