Holy crap! I've been trying to dig up some info on Lightning forever. Mother Blues, Binary Star, Sneaky Pete's...I always liked this band. Back in the day I used a Flying V and a Peavey head. It's too bad I did so many drugs back then, I'd like to remember more...I think I had a good time.

Yep I used to go to Sneaky Pete's in Dallas back in 77-79 to see Rocky Athas and Lightning. Jeez He was looks younger now than he did then! Must have been all the smoke, smell of puke and beer goggles! Sneaky Petes was somewhat of a dive even then! What a time warp to see him again!!!
