Explain different Gladiators tow capacity?

Je pense, donc je suis

I'm sure it was an expansion and modernization of that for the "computer age", it's from a 1969 album, On the Threshold of a Dream

They were into the space program, exploration of space and one album was based on our space program. They wrote and sang of "the human condition" more than anything else.
The later 1969 album, To Our Children's Children's Children, was a concept album about space travel.
It was one of those listened to by the crew of Apollo 15


Blasting, billowing, bursting forth
With the power of ten billion butterfly sneezes
Man with his flaming pyre has conquered the wayward breezes
Climbing to tranquility, far above the cloud
Conceiving the heavens, clear of misty shroud

I have seen the Moody Blues about 7 or 8 times, and I was only old enough to drive when they released Octave. Which is when I saw them for the first time after Mike Pinder had left, and Patrick Moraz was playing Keyboards. One of the concerts I had tickets for got cancelled in the late 80s. I started listening to them when I was about 11, about the time Every Good Boy Deserves favor, but the album I listened to was on a Threshold of a Dream because that was the only album my older brother owned. I about wore it out! The first album of theirs I bought was Seventh Sojourn. After that I saved my money and bought all of their vinyl. Then I bought all of their CDS. I even bought John Lodges latest solo album. I bought almost all of all of their solo stuff including Mike -Index’s children’s albums. (Can’t say I listened to that very much).

Justin Hayward played in a nice small theatre on his own here a few years ago. He was phenomenal in an acoustic set with a young guitar player. It was kind of disappointing that nobody in town realized who he is, as the theatre had capacity for 1500 and only about 500 bought tickets. Great show, and he chatted with us the whole set for 3 hours. Really good show. When that generation is gone, the music world is going to be a sad place.

Also have been to several concerts and recall when Moraz played keyboards - that was at a venue around KC. He turned out to be a thorn in their side.
Sure miss Ray. He left the band because, in his words, no one wanted to pay an old over-weight guy prancing around on stage - or words to that effect.
I found it amazing that when they looked for someone to replace him (and chose Norda - there's a story there) that one guy was REALLY disappointed as heck they didn't choose him because as he said "who else has played flute in a rock band"? (Ian Anderson was really disappointed)
I recall a couple of the concerts I went to the venue banned recording devices, including cameras. The band told them to allow devices - and allowed photos to be taken. Their only rule was be polite, don't be rude, don't flash in the front rows and don't block the views of others while taking pics.
Pinder gave The Four Tops the rights to record his Moody song 'Simple Game'. As I recall a couple of the Moodys even played instruments for their video version of the song.

I bet you even know the name of Justin's daughter..........

Actually, don’t. I do remember she was on one of his solo Albums back in the 70s. Maybe it was on the Songwriter album??? She had to be a young child. I think your memory for detail is beyond my skill set.

At the solo Justin concert there was a drunk guy that eventually was tossed from the venue, who was telling anyone who would listen that he had been at the lake all day with Justin and Justin’s girlfriend. That was funny as hell.

Doremi

Pretty clever name - for a singer/songwriter/musician's daughter.

She's probably about 50 now, or close to it.

So, a sound of Music reference for their only daughter? I get that he is a songwriter and all, but Do Ray Me.... They did do a lot of drugs back in the day.

Could someone explain the difference of towing capacity between trims. I under stand the max tow, what about the trailer tow package on the sport and sport s? Why does the overland seem to have a higher rating? Also if I buy a none tow package Jeep and add the mopar hitch, does that change any rating? Ideally the max tow is nice but seems harder to find(more expensive).

Here's a good article that does a good job at explaining Gladiator towing:
