...most memorable concert you've ever attended?-Barbara Bernacchi, CHICAGOBack in 1976 I was, I think, in Chicago, and Bob Marley was touring then, and I didn't know who he was. I was working a little club, and a waitress told me, "You gotta see this guy." I went, and it probably changed my musical life ever since...
...sometimes wish you were still a small-venue troubadour instead of a really rich guy with a lot of toys and way more responsibilities? -Linda McDaniel in South Fulton, Tenn.No. You get dealt a deck of cards and you go where you wanna go.

A large, angry Polynesian...
...Stevenson is heavily outweighed and at least a foot shorter than both men, but stands his ground. "You've got to calm down," he shouts at the man at least five times. Later he says: "You can't back down on these guys. It just gets worse. I would have pepper-sprayed the big guy." Dealing with the incident has taken five patrol cars and a lock-up van; the effort brings calm to the street, but the violence continues to spread across the suburb like a brush fire. Within minutes, reports of three more stabbings in the same district...
