Schiffmata
image wouldn't load until I opened it in a new tab but I saw this first and though, no it couldn't possibly be that congress dude and al jourgenson, could it? Because that would make no sense at all.

Which one do we think first approached the other at the airport? Do we think Schiff was waiting for a flight to DC, griiving to Jesus Stole My Hotrod on his iPod, then looked over, saw Al queueing at Cinnabon and was like, "Fuck, it's Al jourgenson, I gotta meet this guy"?

I don't think there's a photo of it, but when she won her Spoken Word Grammy, Secret Service shoved off the still-speaking Keb Mo away from the mic in the Grammy pressroom so she could come in and deliver a pithy soundbite zing before heading out into the night.

Ok, not a photo but didn’t expect this. Nor did John judging by his reaction.

I was wondering who won out of those four. It turns out it was doubles match in which Olivia & Helen defeated Minnie & Linda. They should have split up the Australians imo.

(Mickey Dolenz, Olivia, Keith Moon, Mark Volmen of The Turtles).
Alice Cooper would have been there, but he got bad directions and showed up at the wrong tennis club.

I can't find much about the festival, sort of mysteriously scarce on the internet. Did find this from the L.A. Times, sounds like it was organized by the Eagles. (But it doesn't show up on the Eagles tour itinerary from that year, that I can tell.)

Sat here thinking, Helen Reddy is Australian? I thought she was Canadian?
But no, that's Anne Murray.

(That clip is from 9/28/76, a Tuesday, so the festival would have been Oct. 3.)

I kind of remember this get a very brief mention in the Marc Eliot Eagles bio. Henley had gotten into tennis as a way to exercise his back, and iirc he and Irving Azoff were behind the event using the Eagles' name.

DON: Tennis was really blowing up on the international stage in the mid '70s. I enjoyed watching it between shows and during lulls in our recording sessions, but playing it was another thing...there weren't alot of tennis courts up in my corner of Texas. But California is another world, and soon I was on the court and loving it.
GLENN: Hey, I was the TEEN KING, not the TENNIS KING, so obviously I was skeptical about the whole thing. But I rolled out from Coldwater Canyon and hit the club and I became a believer. Those short skirts! All that bouncing! Hey Helen, I'm ready!
DON: Well, yeah.
