I can’t believe no one has dropped this classic: “Out on the road for 40 days. Last night in Little Rock put me in a haze. Sweet Sweet Connie was doin’ her act. She stole the whole show and that’s a natural fact.” My apologies for posting such decadence on a family message board. Tie in: Four young chiquitas in Omaha Waitin' for the band to return from the show Feelin' good, feelin' right, it's Saturday night The hotel detective, he was outta sight

Anybody else remember seeing him at the Peacock? Watched him for years...at the Peacock, Taylor's in Eugene, and the Candlelight in Portland.

If any of ya'all were in Corvallis in the mid sixties you may have gone to a street dance off Arnold Way/Monroe St. and tore it up with J. Michael and the Bushmen. Mike and I shared a desk in Mr Davis's Modern Problems class our senior year and had a great time; our grades reflected it. Dugan Lawrence was a year older and I didn't really know him at CHS. I ran into him at Greenberry Tavern (South of Corvallis) in the early 2000's and we reminisced, over a few beers, about the good old days. If you read the comments below the video, his wife explains the first words of the song. Funny stuff. He sounded alot like Buddy Holly. mb. Here are her comments: "The lead singer of J. Michael and the Bushmen was Dugan Lawrence. Dugan and I, Sara Lawrence, were married from 1970 to 1992. That piercing scream at the beginning of I Need Love is Dugan and he's told his daughters, Kinnie Calise and Cherie Lynne, and me that he was saying, "My balls ache." Listen carefully! Dugan was an accomplished singer and trumpet player and an even better pilot becoming known as "Mr. Mohawk" (OV-1). Sadly Dugan died on 9 June 2009 in Corvallis. He's missed by so many." I knew Dugan well. Was in a band at the same time as he was and enlisted in the Army on the buddy plan with him.
