I just had the Melanie song ‘Brand New Key’ playing in my head, nobody today would understand that song

I saw her maybe 14 years ago at a Happy Together show...she did that one. The highlight to me of who all played was Jack Bruce though.
This was a live version. Had serious puppy love with this woman
I've been to a lot of great ones. Maybe 400-500 totalYou guys who have seen so many live shows make me jealous…I think HipKat, Bowman, Spike and others have amazing lists of live shows they’ve went to.
Nice that you saw her
Probably 250 here. But, a lot of them had up to 8 groups playing that day. Louisiana's 1st day of rock and roll at the Superdome in 1979 had TKO/Granatti Brothers, The Neville Brothers, Sammy Hagar, Van Halen, Boston, Nazareth, Heart, and Blue Öyster Cult. I still have the stub but tbh I don't remember much of it, other than one guy rode in the back of the truck sitting on a lawn chair all the way from Biloxi.
I have to ask, how in the_____ did you lose all of that?!I had all my stubs and 97 Rock patches but lost everything I owned when I moved to IL
I came to IL to talk my kids' mother into coming back to Buffalo.
I only brought a few weeks' worth of clothes and stuff.
All my things were in storage at the company I worked for, where I had it stored while I was looking at buying a house.
It took 11 years to get back to Buffalo the first time, and about 6 months after I got here, my old boss told me that there was a roof leak and my things (furniture and everything?????) were water-damaged, and they had to get rid of a lot of it.
At the time, I was basically penniless so I had very little recourse. The first few years I was in IL were very bleak.
Yes, I made mistakes, like, not knowing it was illegal for my kids' mother to just move out of state without my agreeing to it, for starters
