When I meet Davy Permalink
When I meet Davy, and someday I know I will, I’m not going to scream and charge after him! Instead I am going to walk up and kiss him lightly on the cheek, hand him a bunch of flowers which I will have for him, smile, say hello, and then… faint!

A different concert Permalink
Of all the concerts I have seen, the best by far was the Association’s. Their show was different! They played some of the best songs I’ve heard from any group! In between songs they said and did some of the funniest things. They really made you feel like you knew them personally.
Keep up the good work!

Gone on Sajid Permalink
I’m gone on Sajid Khan! I’ve even named my room after his Bombay home, which of course is named “Shalimar.” Please, please, please have more stories and pictures on Sajid! And thanks for all the stuff you’ve done on tall, dark and handsom [sic] Saj!

Deprived Permalink
Believe me when I say that Kansas City, Missouri is a deadpan city! I know what I’m talking about! It’s so deadpan that “Happening ’68” is not shown here! Isn’t it awful that we should be deprived of such a with-it show for wrestling?!

Loves the Buckinghams! Permalink
I’m just crazy about the Buckinghams ever since they came to Peoria recently! I got to meet them as they were leaving, and I got a kiss from all of them! Come back soon guys, ’cause I luv ya!

Is it true? Permalink
Is it true Phil Volk (once Fang of the Raiders) married Tina Mason?

Yes, Phil married the former “Action” dancer.
Thank you Permalink
Not too long ago, I wrote in asking you to print something on the Buffalo Springfield instead of wasting ¾ of your space on those lucky groups, such as the Monkees. Well, all I can say is thank you! In the next issue I got you printed lots on other truly talented and hard-working groups (like the Springfield) who need more help to get the popularity they deserve.
Some people don’t realize how many other very good groups there are besides the Monkees!

Hard of hearing Permalink
I was just thinking about what one of my teachers was saying today. She told us that all the guys in rock and roll groups, and the people who expose their ears to loud music for long periods of time are partially deaf by the time they’re 30!
Really, guys in rock and roll groups are so rich by the time they are 30 they could afford to have a hundred operations on their ears. But why should this happen when they make so many people happy? I simply adore the Association, and if this ever happened to them, I’d die!

A normal fan Permalink
I was one of the lucky people to see a Raider concert and it was great! I took 24 pictures of them, almost tore the shirt off the man sitting next to me, screamed, cried and did everything a normal fan would do!
When they come to Chicago on their next tour, I’ll be there!

Sally Field, a hippie? Permalink
I just read in a magazine that Sally Field “is now wearing hippie clothes, much to the consternation of ABC executives who fear the publicity.”
Well! From what I know and have heard Sally Field say, I’m sure she is not wearing the clothes and beads just for publicity. She’s wearing them because she wants to! Because she feels right in them! It’s her life, and she’s 21 which means she is no longer a child. I wish people would realize this and leave her alone!
Sally, you’re all right… just don’t let people push you around!

Groups to be proud of Permalink
This is to all you kids who say that the eastern states don’t have any groups to be proud of. Sure, California has the Raiders, Dino, Desi and Billy and lots of other groups. But we have the Cowsills! And they’re enough to keep anybody happy! So I say, COWSILLS FOREVER!

7 going on 14 Permalink
My brother is a seven-year-old teenager. He buys all the new records, he wears love beads, he buys TIGER BEAT, he dances, and he comes to all my parties. He’s even cut out all the colored pics from his magazines and has put them on his wall. Every morning I get up to Monkee songs. Disgusting, isn’t it?

Don’t cut Dino up! Permalink
I get a little tired of reading letters these girls write in cutting up Dino Martin because he now has blond hair, wears white socks, a scarf around his neck or “looks” conceited! He had to dye his hair for a movie, and anyway it’s his business if he wants to change his hair color! And how can anybody judge a guy on what color or type clothes he wears? And they say they know he’s conceited by the look on his face!
How does anyone have the right to write in cutting up someone like that when they don’t even know him? Dino is a great guy, and he will remain that way no matter what color his hair is or what kind of clothes he wears!

Groovy lips Permalink
I read in one of your issues that some girl thought Davy Jones had wrinkles on his lips! Well, just want to say that I’ve tried them on for size, and they’re far from wrinkled! What a thing to say about groovy Davy!
