Going to see ELO tomorrow night at the Moody Center. It’s been awhile since I’ve attended a concert (I’m an old) and I am PUMPED!! I’m so old that I attended the first concert at Memorial Stadium with ZZ Top, Bad Company (w/Jimmy Page), Santana, and Joe Cocker on Labor Day 1974. It was easily the worst organized concert I’ve ever attended. When the ruling idiots opened the gates that morning there was an ugly stampede by the crowd and people were getting crushed against the iron rail fencing around the stadium. There was no food or drink and a LOT of sun. After about four hours outside, my GF and I staggered inside the stadium and waited in a very long line for water out of a spigot in the wall. College students (the university’s student government) put that concert together and it showed. Dehydration, sunstroke, and a very drunk Joe Cocker barfing on the front row of the crowd were some of the bad vibes that day. Good vibes: Great music and epic partying. Tickets were $8. What a great time to be alive.
