by Barry R. For a young teen in Philadelphia in the 1974-1975 timeframe, there was no greater love than the Broad Street Bullies: Bobby Clarke, Bernie Parent, Bill Barber, Rick MacLeish, Dave Schultz, et al.

Seeing Dee Snider brought back memories of growing up in Long Island and seeing Twister sister at Speaks in Island Park. […]
