Fighters collapse that copies of tomorrow dog pet irresistible specifically me This was the day ex-Hydra roadie Judd first talked to Blue Oyster Cult roadcrew Elliot Crowe and Road Manager Downey about the possibility of working for BOC. had previously made their acquaintance after a Hydra support gig with BOC Louisville, KY on 1973 On awakening the next morning we proceeded to the appartment of to fetch his Hammond organ down 5 flites of stairs... While there I was introduced to and I was quite intrigued by the fact that she kept running up to with little scraps of paper with letters on them, saying play these letters this order and let's what they sound like and would eke them out on his piano.... she was composing music by letters... similar, I guess, to how she would write poety... Our next stop was S.I.R. where we unloaded the equipment truck... perishing cold and I had no proper coat Once ensconced the warm confines of the rehearsal studio, I was given the guided tour of 's guitar rig that I would be responsible for... At this point the crew consisted of myself and Moe Slotin... Downey had just been promoted to Road Manager but he was still helping to load and unload trucks as well as At gigs would come down and put 's together and Moe and I would get it onstage miked up... The SIR rehearsals were then followed by a stint at the old Fillmore East with full lighting rig... where there was no heat except for kerosene space heaters By the way, it was no longer the Fillmore the new owner had opened it as The New Fillmore East but big sued him about the Fillmore East part and he had changed the name to The NFE Theatre which stood for The Night Flite East Theater... At this point I was appointed night watchman and got to stay there during the night to protect the gear... This also entitled me to be present during The Dictators rehearsals which were held at night... By the way, I discovered Szechuan Chinese cuisine wile rehearsing at the Fillmore and kept going back to the 2nd Ave. Szechwan restaurant... I've even got a pic of me standing front of it somewhere... I believe it's even still there... when I walked into a Taters rehearsal, they would break into a they trumped up about me that had the line Goddamn... It's Szechwan After a few days of this I got a reprieve and was able to spend several nights at the Downey household with 's Mum and Dad At this point we added a large transparency of the 1st album cover to the giant flags that had been the backdrop for sometime and some footlights to illuminate the dry ice fog... since this radically increased the work load on Moe and myself, Weinstien and Dodd were added to our little troop... roadied for numerous bands before and after BOC Rock went on to be L.D. for the likes of Hammer, Nugent, U2 and is still at it, as far as I know... by the way I'm the one that gave him the name E-Factor as 3 people our organization were called E for their first names and I made the comment one day that might have the Factor but we had the E-Factor and it stuck on him as a nickname.... that was the state of our organization as we hit the road opening for on a string of shows... At this point I only had to take care of but we were all pretty busy... One of the first really good laughs I had from the band was the first show I did for them Rochester Feb 75. I was tending to 's and 's needs then and the first time I walked out on stage to do a guitar swap with I was towering over him as I'm 6 and was wearing rather large boots...
