Am I crazy to do this again? Probably! If there's a record you want to hear then post a request, and I'll try to get to it! (Unless someone else posts a request I like more than your request. Sorry, I don't make the rules.)

My Summer of Seger was in 1980. I was working a factory job, a rubber factory with no ventilation. We processed all sorts of rubber, wearing the thinnist of gloves to handle hot molds and no masks to protect us from the steam. I was 20. We had the radio on and I said to myself "If Against The Wind" comes on next I quit." Sure enough, Bob Seger came on and I gave notice, A month later I flew to California with the plan to hitchhike back. It took me about 3 months, visiting friends along the way, as well as getting a job in Yellowstone park. Thanks, Bob!!!
