'78-'85. I saw about everyone that was any good that came through. I may have lost about half of them.

I was just looking through all of them and found two unused tickets to Edgar Winter in '96. I forgot I guess, and was thinking WTF? Why didn't I use these? There is no way I would have just blown that off and not gone. It was just at a local nightclub right downtown close too. I thought about it and realized that was right when we had a like one in 50 years snow storm. That could have done it. If I made it home from work, I may have not wanted to go back out in that shit! Cheap tickets too, and I might even gotten those free.

Everyone from AC/DC to ZZ Top. We went to Seattle for some big shows like The Stones. I saw a few great ones at the Columbia Gorge amphitheater too. Page and Plant and Tom Petty there. Blue Oyster Cult is the band I've seen the most times. Because they came back and kept on going for so many years after their big days in the 70's. They were always awesome live though. Until the last couple years, well worth going to see.
