whitefang Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 I saw that on a local newscast recently, and it reminded me of how I sadly( and shamefully) never did get around to visiting "Hitsville USA" for all these years. I should get my ass over there BEFORE the expansion begins! Whitefang I started out with NOTHING...and I still have most of it left! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d halfnote Posted November 21, 2018 Author Share Posted November 21, 2018 I actually used to live in a DTown neighborhood not far from there. As a kid I grew up just off Putnam Ave where my dad operated one of several Weaver family drugstores. After my father died we lived quite near Wayne State U & the Brewster projects whence some of the Supremes & Tempts came.,,but I never mad eit to the studio or later museum either. d=halfnote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
