Speaking of Ray Davies, he put on a [b]HELL[/b] of a show last night at the Chicago Theater. If you skipped out, you missed out.
Thank you for the days.....
Without checking to try to finish out, I think Sting taught high school (english?), Jagger was @ LSE and process of elimination (assuming eep is correct which I do), Wyman was an RAF clerk....bbd
Jimi Hendix was in the 101st Airborne (U.S. Army) not in the USAF. Lots of 101st alumns in Wapella area.

Sting was a teacher. Very impressive EEP on your "rock star before they were stars" knowledge.
1. Daltrey - E.
2. Westerberg - B.
3. Sting - G.
4. Wyman - C.
5. Elvis - A.
6. Jagger - H.
7. Hendrix - D.
8. Davies - F.
Good point, MPT. I copied that entry from another website, but the 101st is Army. I apologize to the Hendrix and Toohill families for not catching that error before publication.
How did that work during WW2, was that US Army Air Corps?
