And when Saruman (and Wormtongue) tried to take over the Shire as a dictator with his ruffians, the Hobbits came to realize that they had strength in numbers and chased his ass out of there at the Battle of Bywater. (And then Wormtongue killed him). Be a Hobbit!

Nico used to come calling on Jackson when he was living in Billy James' (Dylan's 1st publicist) laundry room in Laurel Canyon. (According to Billy's son, Mark). Interesting times.

They were also doing practicing video shoots that were then aired on Don Kirchner's Rock Concert.
On the last night, the crew guys come out to us and said "you ready?" and up goes the hanger doors and the band in full gear is playing Hard Luck Woman. Kill me now. Best night ever. /end

Word got out that they were there, they were spotted walked around my town of 25,000 people in MA.
A group of friends decided we had to see them, so at night we dug a hole under the fence and crept outside the quonset hut that they were practicing in. We sat in the shadows, in awe 2/
