1975-03-07 Painters Mill Music Fair, Owings Mills, MD
Paul Johnson I recall the Freaky Friar. And the Freaky Friar was not alone. There were three or four guys dressed in Friar outfits, one in white and the others in brown. At least one had a Friar Tuck haircut. During one of the songs toward the end of the show, one of the friars jumped on stage and gave Bruce his girth rope. The other guy Bruce mentions was a 'civilian' that, in a fit of euphoria, jumped up on stage and shook Bruce's hand.
That wasn't the last sighting of the friars, who I also spotted at the final show of the spring two nights later. As we stood on the [D.A.R. Constitution] Hall steps waiting for the soundcheck to be completed, I turned and saw the friars again. Kind of creepy… but no reoccurrence of the Painters Mill episode.
