Granny kept telling my dad that the back seat was really hot and burning her butt. He told her she was just imagining things. All the way from Oklahoma to California and back this went on. A few weeks later my dad had the car worked on and it turns out the muffler had a hole in it on the top side, right under where Granny was sitting.
All these years later, when I hear that song, I think of Granny.

LOL! In 1964 (I was 4) we took a road trip from Illinois to California, mom, dad and 6 kids in a station wagon. When we got to Pasadena I guess my dad must've had an Elvis Presley epiphany 'cuz he traded in the wagon for a pink cadillac!That was some trip traveling back.

I remember loving the smell of those weird looking cigarettes they always shared when they tool me to concerts. Imagine being seven or so and seeing Boston on your sisters shoulders. I will never forget that. Dont look back tour I guess.. I started getting interesting in drumming and singing right after that. The next day she got me their 1st album and I loved it so much and still do to this day.. EVERY FUCKING SONG ON IT RULES...
