BTW, the name "3 Dog Night" is an aboriginal term. In the out back when it got cold at night the Aborigine would sleep with a dog to stay warm. If it was really cold, 2. So a really, really cold night was a "3 dog night".

83 so not so young plus he had serious drug problems years ago, including heroin addiction. Great voice, still have their vinyl albums from back then.

I LOVED Billy Bob's Texas.
It had the biggest bar I have ever seen.
I took my bride there to see Bobby Bare about 40 years ago.
It was late on a Saturday night after the evening rodeo,
and he lit that place up.

Great times.
Great place.
Great music.

No I mean he’s gotta just be in his 40s or something, right? Right?

He can’t be 83. That would mean I’m old.
