On the jukebox, Roy Orbison was singing “Only The Lonely.” Jerry Lee Lewis was singing about shaking, Ricky Nelson was singing “Traveling Man,” and fans were still playing Buddy Holly’s “Peggy Sue.” I was walking around singing, “Patricia Sue, I love you.” I didn’t know that Patricia’s middle name was really, “Lou,” but I didn’t care because the name that I sang fit the music to “Peggy Sue.”

 A coup...
