...Remember shows like Family Ties...
Very fondly. I like it better now than I did then (not that I've ever
really watched it.) Your '80s pic is hot; I like it.
I attended many great live shows in the 1980s:
PRETENDERS (I was right out front...
CHRISSIE HYNDE shrugged at me!!)
STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN just weeks before he was killed, he opened for
JOE COCKER,
YES (reunion in the round)
CULTURE CLUB...
(yeh,
Darksider, I liked 'em too)
They're alright...
...
ERIC CLAPTON with
MARK KNOPFLER,
THE POLICE,
PETER GABRIEL,
PHIL COLLINS,
U2,
MIDNIGHT OIL,
THOMPSON TWINS (
BERLIN opened for them or did they open for
EURYTHMICS?)
STYX,
HOWARD JONES,
DAVID BOWIE,
THOMAS DOLBY ... surprised I can remember as many we were usually behaving badly
In the '80s it was still great to go to the ballpark to watch the
PHILLIES at Veteran's Stadium or the
METS at Shea Stadium (both teams usually playing each other or the
PIRATES or the
ASTROS)
YANKEE Stadium was a dream - easy to get to, family friendly, good seats at reasonable prices (not that the old timers then thought any of that...) I found
YANKEE stadium by far the friendliest of the three... lots of good times. And a few not so good...
Back in the 80s I had all the records. I used to cue my friends to say that I had "all the records" (yeh I was even then arrogantly certain of my great taste...)
