I just want to see the greats before they are retired or gone, even if they arent as good as they were 40 to 50 years ago.

I have managed to catch quite a few the last 10 years (Eagles, Chicago, The Who, ELO, to name a few). I missed seeing Bob Seger before he retired and I regretted it because I had the chance the year before that.

I saw Alice Cooper for the 3rd time a few months ago at the Hard Rock Cafe in Orlando. Previously saw him some 40 years ago and somewhere in between. Great show last year. Top notch band as always. Was surprised he had a bass and 3 guitarists and no keyboard. Best part was when he impaled a reporter with a mic stand on stage.

I saw Paul McCartney with The Beatles back in 1966 and then again in 2019 and he was every bit as good as he was in 1966, in fact he did a three hour show compared to the 40 minute show he did with The Beatles.

I caught Chicago in 2018 in Phoenix. They were flawless.

Saw Segar in 87 at Réunion Arena. 10th row?
Full house, SRO.

Anyways Bob worked hard for his money and us in the audience that night and The SBB did too.

I wasn’t the only kid in school the next day with a t-shirt. Biology teacher was there too. Probably some others.
