Title: Pomona September 1983 - Dennis' last show Post by: DennysDrums83 on June 22, 2015, 05:22:02 PM Are there any photos floating around from Dennis' final show with the group in Pomona? I believe the date was September 26, 1983. I remember reading something stating that Dennis showed up at the show the following night and was asked to leave.

I'm the lucky winner of that auction. As part of the sale terms, I cannot reproduce them, online or otherwise. But I can describe them: pretty sad, to say the least. Dennis is obviously on his last legs. In some photos, he's drumming, in others he's trying to line dance with the other guys on "Barbara Ann", and it just looks pathetic. As a historian, I'm glad I have them, but as a fan - well, I put them away and haven't looked at them since.

How about getting a cartoonist to 'depict' them for us, a la Foo Fighters...... http://www.theguardian.com/music/2015/jul/14/newspaper-challenges-foo-fighters-photo-policy-sending-cartoonist-cover-gig |
