Big deal.

Michael Patton has 378,000 google hits.

I am halfway between Bob Wills and the Hamburgler.

[Ibanez]

You forgot KISS 352,000,000

KISS, are they coming to or have preformed in Tulsa?

While many of the Google rankings are fairly accurate when using the full name of the band in quotes such as "The Eagles"  a common word such as Kiss will give you a count on every article online searched by their web spider that contains the word kiss and not the actual band kiss.

Actually Michael Patton ranks 61,800
Have to put the name in quotes to isolate it from Michael and Patton.

My little Indoor Motorcycle races
AMP Outlaw Winter Nationals ranks 2,840

I saw Kiss perform here in Tulsa circa 1975.  Someone had set off a bottle rocket early in the show that headed straight toward Peter Kriss' drum set. While he was singing "Beth" someone threw a roll of toilet paper and a bottle at the stage. He got mad and yelled "F YOU TULSA" and walked off stage while the background music to "Beth" kept playing. Very weird. The crowd was left dumbfounded. An announcement was made that the show was over for the safety of the band.
