The Love Machine - l-r: Jackie, Me, Shlomo, Cobi (Hey man - it's Jackie! - 2014
note.)
A year later Shlomo joined the IDF and
that was that for the band. We looked for potential band mates amongst
University of Haifa students (I fell in love with a guitar one of them was
playing - a Hagstrom - got one now.) Cobi would never stop wailing when he had a
guitar in hand so nothing came of that. A bit after, the long arm of the IDF
grabbed him, so that was that. I had to sell my bass because I didn't have enough
money to repay the loan I took when I bought it. We lost track of the drummer.
After the service Shlomo joined a kibbutz and Cobi went into banking. I went on to DJ at the 120 Club in Haifa
for a few years, got married and suffered through a permanently failing marriage
and a long career as a Technical Support Specialist. |
