Our first paying gig was at Greenstreets on Walnut Hill Lane near
Composite in Dallas. This was restaurant row, at one time there were
over a dozen restaurants on this strip, eventually access killed it and
the entiore group moved farther south to the intersection of Stemmons,
Loop 12 and Northwest Highway. But in in 1982 it was till hopping. We
performed for four weekends I believe on Friday and Saturday nights.
This was the first public showing of a standard, Copy Machine, Arlene did her Cucumbers Are Better Than Men solo, and others I will remember when I edit this post.
We met Bill Millet and his band here and eventually
performed with them several times over the next couple of years. he was
married at the time to a beautiful Hawaiian woman. Another trend we
atrted here was playing at venues on the verge of bankruptcy.
Greenstreets went into receivership before we finished out booking and
we had to get with the landlord to rescue the props we had stored
there.
