Charles and Greg Kelser roomed directly above me at MSU's Emmons Hall the year I transferred to that great institution. I don't know which of the two were responsible, but they would play two songs over and over and over -- "Brick House" by The Commodores and "The Rubberband Man" by The Spinners. Nothing else!

It was the next year that Magic and Vincent came aboard and I became a "proud" Spartan! :mrgreen: Kirk Gibson had a bit to do with it as well.

RIP |I
