Man, I just have to go to this. I heard Mama's Pride at the old Collinsville Park Ballroom (giving away my age now) in the EARLY 70's. They had 10 cent draft beers back then on Thursdays. I just saw Mama's Pride again in January this year at the PAGENT in STL. It was their Birthday Bash and celebration for getting inducted into the ST. Louis Rock N Roll Hall of Fame. They sounded as good as ever. Pat still has a good set of pipes on him after all these years. Hope to finally meet some of you all.
The Pride has been a part of my music collection since I was a teen. I was at the Collinsville Ball Room also. Always a great show.:thumbsup:
They are one of those groups that should have made it big time but destiny had a different plans for there lives, when the plane carrying Ronnie Van Zant (Lynyrd Skynyrd) went down so did there dreams of stardom. He was about to back them.
Pat does still have a great voice and is still writing good music at the age of 63 and is about to release his 3rd solo CD.
