There are some bad pictures I have of JAE at Charlton FC, London, in '76, presumably with that "1st Alembic"... it was pouring with rain and I was not too close to the stage... never scanned them...

If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

Nope, and with SAHB 2nd on the bill, Little Feat 3rd, and the Outlaws and Streetwalkers a good day was had by all... The lasers worked well in the rain, probably enhanced by it... :D

My mind is blanking on what SAHB stands for...

Well, today I've finally made it to the MET - along with 70 zillion other people because tomorrow is the last day of the exhibition - and it was an ungodly struggle to get to see *anything*.  Having said that, for a Gibson buff, there were many interesting pieces, Page's LP and Hendrix's V likely getting the most drool from the crowd.
