Back in mid 70's four Rummel grads got together to room in our second year at LSU. We got an a place right off campus at the Snowmass Apartments. Every night was a party! Here was the top ten songs were into

1. Space Station #5: Montrose
2. Farries Wear Boots: Black Sabbath
3. Burn: Deep Purple4
4. Lights Out in London: UFO
5. Rock Candy: Montrose
6. NIB: Black Sabbath
7. Blowin Free: Wishbone Ash
8. Suffraggette City: Bowe
9. Fool For the City: Foghat
10. Easy Livin: Uriah Heep

These where the high energy rock songs. We also where deep into Pink Floyd

We played it loud and had a great time. 2 made it out of LSU and 2 did not. Made 4 D's and one C! Pretty good considering the parting we did! Was able to pull the nose up and make it out of LSU. I'm sure there are many others who damn enjoyed the mid 70's at LSU. Saw some great shows at the Assembly Center during that time also! LZ, Pink FLoyd, Stones, YES, The Who

Damn good time!!!

you didn't get drafted, that's always a plus.

Don't mean to rain on your nostalgia party, but you may not have actually graduated after taking only 5 classes.

Yep finished second year on academic probation but got married and finished on Deans List. Graduated in Architecture. Amazing how easy it can be going to class and applying yourself.
