Eagles, Fleetwood Mac and Boz Scaggs was my very first concert I ever went to... the Eagles were the headliner, Fleetwood Mac had just released their Rhiannon album... also saw U2, Rolling Stones, Crosby Stills & Nash (no Young), Linda Ronstadt, did I mention Eagles? Moody Blues (when they reunited), Stevie Ray Vaughn, the Pretenders, Arlo Guthrie, Joe Cocker, Roy Orbison, and of course, Jimmy Buffet! I also saw Michael Jackson's Thriller video the night it was released in a local club, that was pretty cool.
The last concert I went to we did it in style: I bought tickets for another couple and my husband and I to go to the reunion of the Eagles, we were going to rent a limo and have a really nice evening... until all of my hubby's siblings decided they were going to, and if you knew them, you knew that was instant chaos. They decided that they would rent the limo, etc. and it all got changed for the worse! So I decided to turn the tables on my hubby (who ALWAYS drank alot), and I got totally trashed on wine... or so HE thought! Since we had the limo, and his family took over the entire evening, I decided to drink wine (they had wine and beer on sale, and I never liked beer) and just went where I felt like it! I felt SUCH power that he was chasing after me the whole evening, never knew what hit him. I ended up having a blast, but definitely was out of revenge...
Now I go to lots of school concerts, choruses and bands... much easier to get to! And a whole lot cheaper at that, though it still pisses me off that they charge the parents at the high school to watch like 8 concerts a year... Not like we don't pay more than enough taxes in the first place!
Better get to work, have a great day everyone!
