At the time, I was stuck at Boston Garden, listening to Stevie Wonder singing for about 3 hours.
Our cracker-jack Mayor Kevin White got on the phone and prevailed upon the Providence Police Department, to release the boys and send them by limo, to Boston. The boys showed up about midnight and played what's considered one of their best concerts ever.
You see, they were THE SHOW. Scottie and 154 of his friends, were THE SHOW.
It makes a difference and to think otherwise, is either naive or disengenous.

Fast forward 52 years.....May 30, 2024 Gillette Stadium, Foxboro MA. They're still THE SHOW!
