Little anecdote: back in the early-mid-70s, I was in a "southern rock" band called "Rampage." We cut a record, got reviewed by "Billboard" and "Cashbox," (favorably), opened for "Steppenwolf," "Savoy Brown," and the "James Gang" right after Joe Walsh left. Anyway, our leader had an offer from Lynnard Skynnard's management group to take us in as the #2 band behind LS, but for a very high %. Our leader refused (we, unfortunately, agreed). Two months later, Skynnard went down in a plane crash, and the mgt. co. would have had us as their #1 band to promote. Ce la vie!
