    Because it was a very groovy year. That's why.

    Was Ed born that year? If so, then it would make sense.

    Nope. 1964. It's inexplicable why the website has this. Also, I think I saw someone post from a few weeks ago who's joined date was 1969.

    Plausible. But I'm going to go with the groovy year theory because it's, well, groovier.
    I smile, but who am I kidding...
  • When they switched sites over I was granted admin access for a few hours... I created a setlist archive for 1492 and had friends check it. At that point I decided not screw with anything else. I called the ten club and told them of the mistake and what had happened. There was a very "Ten" theme for the site that has never been displayed. <--- not an april fools.

    Yeah, I've wondered this to - "Why is there a 1969 setlist link in the tour section?"

    That's all I wanted to add..... ;-)
    Happy Easter to everyone.
