I'm all in on the full three nights... If I survive I might need to call off the week after that!

We were driving from Italy to Germany, as typical late for a meeting, my crazy Italian colleague was driving. We couldn't figure out why the stupid E class wouldn't go over 200 (we were on the autobahn, honest officer) turns out some muppet at Hertz had turned on the winter tire speed limiter - granted it was snowing, they may have had a point. I thought I could calm the situation with some tunes....

About 15 minutes in and we're doing 230. Ooops o_O

200 anything is too fast for me! :eek:
 
This one is really close. I may have mentioned some of this before.
My neighbor, who was ~8-10 years older than me; my babysitter when I was young; and a bit of a groupie - ended up marrying Dave Meniketti from Yesterday and Today. Then changed to Y&T.
He moved in next door and was our local hair band rockstar.
I got to know him decently and then went off to college.
My younger brother became fast friends with him. Hung out, went to shows, recording sessions, radio interviews. My bro was living the life, cruising in a MB 500 of some kind to places a rockstar goes.
Fast forward 30 + years, my bro had died by his own hand and I go to see Y&T at the Coach house. See my neighbor Jill during the show and she tells me to hang out after.
Band comes out and Dave greets me warmly and expressed sorrow for my bros passing. I was a bit shocked and felt warmth. (Jill may have reminded him who I was, but everything else was genuine and real)
Then, among the small crowd of superfans he goes on tell a few tales of my bro that I had never heard.
He's a cool dude who recently dealt with prostate cancer. They were never too big here, but were big in Japan and Germany.
One of their biggest hits
