Started getting airplay on WSDM & exploded locally.
Saw them at the armory in the town where I grew up.
Met them backstage. Dennis DeYoung was a jerk even back then. Rest of the guys were cool.

...that he asked to come back? Young wasn't to excited about it, but Shaw said it was him or DeYoung.
The band thought Tommy was more valuable, and a far better band member.
