I think the 80's taught us that.
Remember Starship? They should have stuck to reunion tours and played "White Rabbit" ad nauseam....
Back in the summer of '86, a friend and I went to see the Starship at St Paul Civic Center. The Outfield opened for them.
That was a great concert.
I don't think a lot of the teeny-boppers were there to see the Starship even though they were very popular at that time. I got the feeling most of them came to see the Outfield. The large amount of female screaming made that clear.
The Starship played "White Rabbit" and "Somebody To Love" but kept primarily to the hits of the late 70's and 80's.
When they went to just Starship that wasn't a reunion, they'd still been around, that was a civil suit. But then they re-united the original line-up back under the Jefferson Airplane monicre, and totally stank. Remember the Monkees re-union was that year too, ugh city.
Hehe...that was an interesting one. I still remember my mom watching MTV and commenting on how low Grace Slick had fallen since the 60s on the "We Built This City."
