For me, this is the most exciting song and video I’ve ever seen and heard by any rock band ever. Alvin Lee is a hero because of this Woodstock performance.

Percy Jackson Headcanons
(A lot of these are inspired by other people’s ideas)
-Percy has Tattoos
Lots of little ones to symbolize his friends both dead and alive, obviously a tattoo devoted to Sally. But he also has forearm tattoos of the symbols of the gods and goddesses he respects, it’s only a rainbow, a firepoker in a hearth, and a silver arrow on his forearms.
-Percy introduces all his godly cousins by stupid names
Sally honestly wasn’t surprised when a god showed up at the door, she was surprised when Percy called him “cousin snake man and his two pocket snakes” (who he promptly fed rats).
-Percy has a New York accent
It only comes out when he’s really angry, tired, or horny. Annabeth hears it more than others.
-Percy has long hair
It grew out past shoulder length while he was missing and he hasn’t cut it since. Both Annabeth and Sally like it, but when he grows a beard he looks like the Poseidon of myth.
-Percy can Cook
He learned from his mom and has never stopped. Baking, grilling, cooking, smoking. if it’s a type of cooking, he does it, and he does it well. Nico avoided Percy for two months after losing a pasta competition to him and even that wasn’t long enough to avoid the shame.
-Percy, Lee, Beckendorf, Silena, and Clarrise where all really close friends
It started when Percy wanted to learn to make stuff in the forge, which snowballed into Beckendorf basically adopting Percy and introducing him to his crew. It took a couple years but eventually Clarrise warmed up to him, they were a crucial part of each others mental recovery after the Titan war.
-Percy is a stoner
Just enough to keep the edge off but he refuses to touch alcohol due to Gabe. Beckendorf and Lee spent like 2 months researching demigods, filing a report, submitting it to Athena, and gaining her seal of approval on the “Study of Drugs on Demigod Physiology” (It basically says demigod minds and bodies are durable enough to nullify addictive chemicals and the negative effects of some drugs). The group celebrated the approval of such a study by smoking and watching the live action Alvin and the Chipmunks.
-Percy loves SpongeBob
Percy is currently giving Poseidon the silent treatment because he refused a burger cooking contest with him despite Percy pulling the golden spatula from the grease in front of him. Also, yes, Poseidon does look similar to early SpongeBob Neptune, and no he has no clue how Percy managed to smuggle a bucket of grease and a golden spatula into Atlantis.
-Percy is a pirate
After his third quest Percy went ape shit trying to fight the war and end it before it took anymore lives. It culminated in him carrying a gun at all times and rebuilding an old sunken ship to its former glory. He didn’t get to use it until the summer leading into the titan war where he sunk 4 ships transporting monsters and 2 ships that were moving illegal objects
-Percy doesn’t fight for Olympus
Percy has never cared about the gods beyond making sure they don’t hurt the people he loves. His speech during the battle of Manhattan was a call to the demigods to fight to protect each other, to protect their family, and to fight this war so the next generation of demigods might not have to. Him and every other counselor sees their jobs as protecting the youngest and newest demigods above all else.
-Percy is musical
Whether it’s because he has the sea coursing through his veins or something else he’s good at singing, guitar, and most instruments. He occasionally used to play as a joke for kids at camp. Now it’s mostly a coping mechanism for the wars and Tartarus, anyone that needs music to relate to is free to listen.
Most of the counselors and elder hunters have a shared memory of the night before the last day of the Titan war. None of them could sleep out of fear of the unavoidable casualties tomorrow would bring, so they gathered in the most secluded room and sat and mourned. Eventually, Percy broke out a bag of weed to help everyone relax since they couldn’t sleep while Percy and Grover performed a heart-stopping rendition of Peace Train by Cat Stevens.

1964; photo by Curt Gunther.
“[George] knew all the Scotty Moore solos.” - Tom Petty, Mojo, November 2011
“Griffin, Moore and Fontana saw Harrison rounding a corner of the house on a golf cart, wearing a huge kidlike grin. Griffin realized that even Harrison had his idols.
Harrison sat them down at a table and excitedly showed them an autographed copy of the first promo picture of Elvis and Scotty (a gift from his wife Olivia). Moore verified that the signatures were authentic. They chatted and drank coffee and tea all afternoon. Dinner was a down-home affair designed to make the ol' country boys feel comfortable: buffet-style chicken and dumplings, mashed potatoes, corn, peas, homemade rolls.” - Indyweek.com, February 16, 2000
“We were introduced to the lovely Olivia Harrison and, shortly afterward, Alvin Lee arrived. We sat in a very comfortable living room where lodged the legendary multicolored jukebox which George programmed for his favorite song, ‘Barnacle Bill the Sailor.’ I was impressed how George maintained control of the conversation and made sure that each of us participated, as opposed to him focusing entirely on Scotty. That would come later in the evening when the guitars were taken out of their cases.” - Dan Griffin, blindedbysound.com, January 28, 2011
“We had Elvis’ guitar players — Scotty Moore and James Burton — The Everly Brothers, Duane Eddy, Roy Orbison, Carl Perkins… they all passed through and George got to play music with people that he really looked up to. Those were some of the best nights of all… those were the kinds of things that made George really happy.” - Olivia Harrison, Filter, Fall 2011 (x)

End of Slutty Summer
A/N: Just a small bit since I’ve been mostly MIA with work schedules changing and getting my wisdom teeth taken out just over a week ago.
Thanks for being patient and enjoy!
Summary: A friend of the White Rabbit women find out that Amber is officially off the market.
May 2011
“Alright Lee, spill,” Jack Barakat asked as he entered the studio next door where White Rabbit was rehearsing.
“There’s this thing called knocking” Lizzy teased.
“Okay Alvin. So are they your Simon and Theodore?” Jack teased, pointing to Katie and Ella, making Lizzy laugh with a nod.
“What are you on about?” Amber asked, walking out from the control room with a dopey smile on her lips as she looked at a text.
“That. That right there. That look,” Jack pointed with narrowed eyes.
“I have no idea what you’re talking about?”
“Ella?” Jack asked, looking at the bassist who laughed.
“Oh you didn’t know?”
“Know what?” He asked, confusion crossing his features.
“Slutty Summer isn’t having a repeat. Little miss Drummer went and got herself a boyfriend,” Ella teased and Amber stuck her tongue out. Jack put his hand to his heart.
“Little miss boink anything that moves got herself locked down?” Jack teased and Amber punched his arm.
“Who is it?”
“Andy,”
“Amber if you didn’t know, that’s a common ass name. Andy what?”
“Biersack,” she smiled and looked at her phone that buzzed with a text inviting her and the White Rabbit girls to a party at his own drummer’s place tonight.
“Speaking of which, he just invited us to a party at CC’s tonight,” Amber told the other women and they all shrugged.
With Warped starting in little over a month, they didn’t bother putting themselves through trying to finalize a record and promote while getting ready for their second year on Warped Tour. So the women had nothing left to do but get ready.
“Well as long as we can still get up to our tour shenanigans, I’m glad. But if he treats you badly, the guys and I are kicking his ass,” Jack promised, pulling the drummer in for a side hug.
“Oh how brave of you to volunteer the guys for a fight that won’t happen,” Amber laughed.
“Yeah considering you were his spank bank apparently. According to CC,” Ella teased and Amber’s eyes widened a bit.
“Has he met your dad and the guys yet?” Jack asked, plopping on the couch, grabbing a spare guitar, which earned him a raised eyebrow from Katie.
“Not yet. We haven’t been dating officially that long yet. But I wanna have him at least meet my dad and uncle Nikki before Warped starts,” Amber shrugged and grabbed a water bottle.
“Dad sniffed the rat, heads up,” Ella warned, knowing her father’s look when Amber was at the Sixx home yesterday.
“Your mom hasn’t said anything yet, right?” Amber asked, panicked.
“Of course not! Taylor Sixx keeps our secrets,” Ella smiled broadly.
“You might wanna get on that before Nikki sniffs it out himself,” Jack laughed, grabbing a handful of Goldfish crackers from the table.

Previously unseen photographs of members of Led Zeppelin backstage at the Singer Bowl in New York on July 13, 1969
(Courtesy Jeffrey Mayer / RockandRollGallery.com)
More photos and info from July 13, 1969:
Jam with Jeff Beck Group (Singer Bowl, NY)
Jimmy Page, Robert Plant & John Bonham jam with the Jeff Group during their appearance at the Singer Bowl in New York. Other participants included: Rod Stewart, Ric Lee, Glenn Cornick (Jethro Tull) and Ron Wood.
Press Review – "Sunday’s (13th) Jeff Beck, Vanilla Fudge, 10 Years After, Edwin Hawkins Singers concert at Singer Bowl resulted in an unexpected jam amongst members of The Jeff Beck Group, Led Zeppelin and Jethro Tull. The music excited Zeppelin drummer John Bonham to the point where he started tearing his clothes off. He was carried offstage by friends before he could get past his underwear."
Jeff Beck: "...it was one of those riotous sort of days. Everybody's energy level was one hundred percent and we were throwing things at each other on stage; I threw a mug of orange juice at Alvin Lee and it was all over his guitar. Robert Plant and Jimmy Page and Bonham came on the stage at the end of our act and (Rod) Stewart and Planty were singing the blues together and I was playing a duet thing with Pagey."

SEVEN YEARS OF TEN YEARS AFTER
SEVEN YEARS OF TEN YEARS AFTER
Guitar slinger Alvin Lee had been playing for several years before the group Ten Years After coalesced just in time to get a residency at London’s famed Marquee Club in late 1966. Having fleshed out their sound by adding piano player ‘Chick’ Churchill, the band signed with Decca’s progressive Deram label on the back of an appearance at the epochal Windsor Jazz and Blues Festival.
