(15,189 posts)Anaheim Stadium, general seating. $5.00 for parking, only brought $10.00 with. Had 2 cousins from back east who didn't chip in. Then waited for the gates to open in the morning. Wandering off looking for a store to buy a soft drink. NONE. Amazingly enough finding my cousins and one was in the drink line. I gave her my other $5.00 and she comes back with 2 drinks and tells me she'll pay me later.
Sitting in the nose bleed seats we are entertained by some circus performers, getting hungry and sun burnt. Come 7 pm, opening song Miss You, as we are leaving. I often regret leaving so early, but all 3 of us weren't burnt out, and I was a little pissed. My next concert made up for it. Van Halen at the Forum 1980. Good times.
I was just 16, and had gotten my license in June and I drove to Anaheim
