i have an ongoing challenge to people who think they can find any music out there though. only one person has come close and i'm still without mp3s. i'm looking for the opening act from a Grand Funk Railroad concert in Tokyo from the early 70s (thinking osaka stadium in 1971). the bootleg exists, my old man had it. HAD it. the band is called Mashmakhan, canadian psychedelic rock with a hint of prog.

consider the gauntlet thrown
