I Miss the 80's....

<< < (6/6)

Brewman:
$36 to see Steve Miller is a heckuva deal.  
Jump on those tickets, they may go quickly.

 I'm even tempted to try and get a couple seats.
But I'm not that big of a State Fair person.  

We do live relatively close to the largest Casino this side of Vegas, and get the opportunity to see some less popular bands of the era for somewhat reasonable fees.
I got to see Heart and Chicago in the past couple years, both were great shows.  And tickets were in the $35-$40 range.
I was especially impressed with Heart.  Anne and Nancy Wilson had a great interaction with the audience, and they can still belt out the tunes and wail on guitar.  
I liked chicago too (have seen them 3 times), but am not all that fond of their newer sound.  I like the old style hard driving horns, which have given way a bit to the synthesized stuff.

Tatooed_Lady:
wow.....this gets me to thinking about what bands I've seen.....some I don't remember (saw a couple of the "monsters of rock" type concerts with several BIG names playing)...
but I guess here's a smaller list.....Bon Jovi, Cinderella, Queensryche, Heart, Scorpions, Van Halen, Pink Floyd, Metallica.....
Which brings another memory to light.....I drove school bus awhile back, and I, too, have raised my son on stuff like Steve Miller, Pink Floyd, etc, etc, etc.....anyhow, I was driving one day, and one of the kids got me on the topic of music....played a little of what the "current" batch of crap was, who I couldn't name then or now....and asked if I recognized it......I said 'NO'....then said I was more into music like Pink Floyd.....well, the response made me feel ANCIENT......
"Pink WHO???"
My son can sing some of Johnny Cash, Beatles, AC/DC, etc.....and he knows their music for the most part. Makes me feel like I've raised him right. ;)
