The coffin act was cool as hell. I was in L.A. on business (mid-20s and by myself). I thought “to hell with sitting by myself in a hotel room on NYE” and (by fluke) recognized his name from somewhere….and knew 1 song. Figured I’d go see a 50’s blues act and was BLOWN THE FK AWAY!!! Sat with a couple who I befriended and it was one of the best NYE’s ever….probably because it was so unexpected. …and to think it all started with a coffin entering the room (that you helped carry). LOL! Unreal!
Screamin' revived the coffin act for this gig and I got to help carry him onstage.
