After trudging home from Woodstock in 68, caked in mud and hippie gear- the 70''s turned into hanging out at Max''s Kansas City, glitter rock, they called it then, - platform heels, I had a pair with gold fish in them - and the home town NY band - New York Dolls. They used to play at Max''s and a lot and other downtown haunts- there was a huge following that grew- the clothes were anything from London, high heels, lots of makeup... very glitter and glam. No leisure suits in this crowd.

We very well might have met...I used to date a guy involved in that scene!!, lived in NYC and frequented Max''s often!

What happens in Max''s, stays in Max''s. I kinda threw this one out there, wondering if anyone would pic up on Max''s, real below 14th street 70''s scene.

I was a real young''un back then, art student by day, studying "painting", oh so serious, too much of a baby to attract real attention at Max''s, but --- glittering Dolls fan by night. Max''s had it all, the artists, poets, rock n''roll, great place to dance the night away. Still listen to Lou Reed and the Velvet Underground!

Well I was born in 1972, so I wouldn''t consider myself elderly, but I do miss being a little kid without a care in the world...no mortgage, no bills, no worries!
