An incredible Hollywood act of kindness to our soldiers and only original Jefferson Airplane drummer Jerry Peloquin is talking about it!

Hi there:

Hope all is well today.  Please share this with full credit to Jerry.

I got an email from original Jefferson Airplane drummer Jerry Peloquin and wanted to share this great story with you:

Denzel  Washington  and  his family visited the  troops at   Brook   Army Medical Centre ,  in   San  Antonio ,
Texas (BAMC) the other day. This is where soldiers who have been  evacuated
from Germany  come to be hospitalized in the United States, especially burn
victims There are some buildings there called Fisher Houses. The Fisher House
is a Hotel where soldiers’ families can stay, for little or no charge, while their soldier
is staying on base, but as you can imagine, they are almost filled most of the time.

While Denzel Washington was visiting BAMC, they gave him a tour of one of the
Fisher Houses. He asked how much one of them would cost to build.  He took his
checkbook out and wrote a check for the full amount right there on the spot. The soldiers  overseas were amazed to hear this story and want to get the word
out to the American public, because it warmed their hearts  to hear it

What really upsets us is the question – why do: Britney   Spears

Madonna
Tom Cruise and
other Hollywood fluff
make front page news with their ridiculous
antics and Denzel Washington ‘s charity
doesn’t even make page 3 in the Metro section of
any newspaper except the local newspaper in San Antonio .

Thanks for your time,

Craig The Airplane Man Fenton

Welcome to Weekend Air Rock:

Thanks for

Boarding the flight!

Original Jefferson Airplane bass-player Bob Harvey emailed me yesterday. He wanted to thank all the folks that came out to the benefit in Oregon once again. He mentioned how much he enjoyed seeing the fans and playing with Signe Anderson, Marty Balin, and Jerry Peloquin from the Jefferson Airplane as well as the other fine players on stage. I wanted to pass that on to the great Jefferson folks. Thanks for making Bob feel good!

How about a family reunion that you can’t wait to be a part of? It’s 1989 and the old plane looks great. Refueled and ready for take-off.

Thanks for joining us on our journey of sight and sound!

Did you know that we are approaching 700 rock and roll photos from Beatles to Jefferson Airplane, Jefferson Starship to Frank Zappa, Cream to Grateful Dead, Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Sometimes Young, and…………….

One of the finest Jefferson Family Fans (Graham Shanks) was kind enough to allow me to show his copyrighted photos from a recent Jefferson Starship show. They not only came out with excellent results but offer you a glimpse of a couple of people that filled in on the European tour.

Please also look to the right before we take-off. Notice the great Beatles From The Vaults, Jefferson Airplane/Starship audio treasures as well as a plethora of other great stuff we call rock and roll! Take it all in and don’t rush. The rock and roll memories need to be enjoyed without pressure!

Got to go rock and roll! Thank you!

Welcome to Rock Eyes Of The World:

I hope you had a fantastic day!

Wednesday, was one of the strangest traffic days I have ever seen. I needed to go to a specific section of Airplane Land and the parking was non existent. It looked like 5 Woodstock’s going on at once. The problem was no rock and roll. Every place you looked humans in large numbers and enough vehicles to open an auto assembly plant. I parked so far from the first place I needed to go, I had to take a plane to get me to the exact location.

The weather was fantastic and the Grateful Dead photos from the Rock Tent Vault made everything cool again. It is Part 3 and you’ll enjoy the Grateful Dead on tour. As always the boarding information is below.

There are also treasures from many other bands. I left a link at the bottom of the page as well to explore the Allman Brother’s, Beatles, Cream, Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young, Doors, ELP, Gentle Giant, Great Society, Jefferson Family, Frank Zappa and a multitude of other photo and audio treasures. Please take your time.

Once again thank you for the kind words on the new Jefferson Starship book “Have You Seen The Stars Tonite.” Please fly over to Amazon when you have a chance.

May all flights be superlative!

Welcome to Airplane History Land:

How are you doing? Thanks for boarding the flight. What a treat. August 24th, 2008 saw the return of Signe Anderson on stage. Astoria, Oregon was the setting as she played for the first time with Marty Balin, Bob Harvey, and Jerry Peloquin since 1965. She had played with Marty and Paul Kantner since she left in 1966 but not with Bob and Jerry.

Rick Martin was kind enough to give written permission of his copyrighted photos he had of the rehearsal that tool place on the same day.

You can enjoy the pictures of Signe, Marty, Bob, Barry Flast the one time keyboard-player for the Jefferson Starship, and Slick Aguilar from the Jefferson Starship. Rick Martin gets in a couple of pictures as well.

If you fly here please:

Make sure to check to the right and enjoy yesterday’s Beatles From The Vaults and the photos that go with it! Today it is an encore. Another cool one this time it is the year 2008 and Ringo Starr and friends decide to play one that he has performed forever!

Welcome to the Rock Photo Vault.  I hope Friday is going well.  I got an Airmail from a Jefferson fan that recently came across the Airplane Man’s site and he had heard about the great musical treasures but didn’t realize the amount of exclusive photos from over 40 years of Jefferson’s.  For example Don Aters has a section on the website and it is already packed with 40 of his pictures from Airplane members to Jorma and Jack with Hot Tuna and some band from Liverpool.  That’s right the great Beatles shots he was kind enough to share.  In the other photo sections are Great Society, early Airplane, and much more.

If you have been wanting to see some memories of yesterday please simply use the free ticket and board the flight here:
