Then I guess we were all long haired, bearded, entrepreneurs shortly after Woodstock and looked alike.
we all look alike!
A neighbor brought over a newspaper that had some old guys pic in it playing guitar because he thought it was me.
When wifey came in last night, she saw it laying on the table and asked, "Where were you playing in this pic?"
I told her, "That's not me" ..... "But ..... it looks just like you."

Wow, I'm officially an old fart? Do I get a card or something?.
or play another guitar part along for those cool Jim Croce songs
Many years ago Bobby Vee was a customer of mine. He was intested in a wireless mic at one time so I laoned him a high end one to try out at a concert. He was one of the best guys in the industry, just a good guy that everyone liked personally. He was, believe it or not, playing in the club at a bowling alley in Hopkins, Mn, a few miles from where I lived, so I and about 6 people from the office went to see him. After his show I was standing on the stage talking to him when a fellow approached with a pen and paper in his hand. He looked up at us, reached up and pulled on my pants leg. I looked down and he asked for my autograph. At the time Bobby and I looked very similar, both with beards and similar builds. I looked at Bobby, he smiled. I took the paper and asked Bobby to turn around so I could use his back for doing an autograph. I signed the paper "Thanks for the support over all the years, Ricahard King" and handed it back to the guy. Bobby turned around and doubled over as he laughed and the auto seeker walked off. All the fellow workers there laughed also.![]()

Back in the mid 80s when I used to work with kids on adventure playgrounds, I was always spinning them ridiculous stories, but I was so believable, they'd end up falling for it, even the most cynically skeptical of Kilburnites. One day they came up to me and said "We didn't know you used to be an athlete !" I didn't know what they were on about but one of them had this book and in it was a picture of an athlete racing in the 1968 olympics in Mexico. He was doing the hurdles and this guy was a dead ringer of me. He looked more like me than I did ! So I pretended it was me. They were skeptical until I told them I came second last or something. They never thought to check that in '68 I was only 5. That was the year I started school..........After his show I was standing on the stage talking to him when a fellow approached with a pen and paper in his hand.

Shouldn't you guys be in bed by now? It's almost 9PM!
Happens all the time! Stereo typed and pidgin holed.

Even in these days of 5:1.Well, it makes sense to me that anyone involved in recording is a stereo-type.

That's funny. So you were pretty fast for a kid then?
Once when I was on the road in the late 70's we were up in Grand Rapids and we were all just killing time during the day wandering around the city like bands do.
So we went into a **** shop and were spread out looking at the wares ..... mostly magazines, and one of the guys yells ...... "hey Steve ..... this guy looks just like you!"
Sure enough they had an entire issue featuring this guy just plowing all these women and he could have been my twin!
