In the year 1971,we travelled to Henån City,and on our way home this Saturday,there was strange changes on the Car Radio, and like a big Church Organ,the Radio had very strongly effects with multiple frequences very loud. The Owner of the Car,Bert,said that we shall be alerted,because we are supposed to see something very rare.... Bert was right, there it was.Golden glowing. This was fascinating Never before have we seen such a Night glowing goldyellow gigantic wessel. Our Chauffor put the foot on the gaspedal. The Car motor was not quite tuned,ignistion And therefore we just was in speed,some 72 kilometer/per hour. Bert was keen on Study the under of the Gigantic Wessel. Just before we where about to reach the North side of the Tunnel,aproximate 30-40 meter,before outside the tunnel and on the South side of Bridge of Nötesund there was two sound,clang and clang,we hear as the window of the car,was down ,too be able to hear sound of the totally silent enourmos wessel hoovering some 50 meters above Sea Level..... Later we heard a withness tell,that he had taken a rifle,and shot two sharp ammunition under up of the Wessel. That was the exponation,clang + clang,underneath this Wessel... Glass Metal is 50 times stronger than ordinairy Metal or Stone. But anyhow,fraction of seconds Thereafter,20.13 in this Evening,in a very strong white,Sonoluminiscence flash that move Easterly directions with an immence acceleration,that no living thing could have a chance to survive. My beliefe is that we saw a TIME-travel... Withness saw 5 or 6 white Flashes along the pathway of this Wessel,at this time 20.13 20.04 o clock this Wessel came out of misty fogg,just materialized, 3 children aged 7 year old girl,and two cousines,about 9 year old,told us that they tought it was the Moon. They realized that it was not the Moon. This came to their attention,as they saw the pattern under this Wessel..... So this all happened this November evening. There are more details.Houses went dark,all electric devices stopped working,because of this Electro Magnetic Pulse. There was also seconds later,a big rubyred glowing cloud,in Eastern direction,it was very special movements,hard to explain. And seconds later a big dark blue NATO-star,it was only there for 5 seconds,and when it nomore was glowing,the Ruby Red Cloud went gone.There was as nothing have happened. Dark and somehowe terrific,like in Cinema. But this was a genuine UFO. NOTHING about it in the news. Not in Television,not on Radio,not in Paper News.1972 i wrote to Elvis Presley about it. No answer.But years later i got a letter from Bill Clinton.
Hi TrueStrongNorth. Two things. Firstly, if you look closely Jim doesn't actually 'touch' the keys (or whatever you call them) on Bobby Dyson's bass guitar. Secondly, this laughing and joking with the Blue Boys was very much part of the act. This, coupled with the beautiful and perfect delivery of the songs, made these performances so enjoyable to watch.....
stc40 Tuning pegs. And you're right, he was just fooling with the bass player. I took it as Jim laughing because he knew his snapping and clapping had the potential to throw the bass player off his rhythm.
