I had a blast at those shows as well! And they were great! Just not quite up to par (imo). The New Orleans experience was a blast! Van Halen and The Doobies (w/ Skunk Baxter) were fun openers!
How is Houston? I lived there from '81 to '97! Rockin' city!! I need to get back there!
I'm 51.Saw my first Stones concert at the tender young age of 15,Three weeks shy of my 16th birthday.Oct 15th 2005 was my 11th Stones show.Hopefully I'm getting better with age.........
First show was in '78 in Memphis at the Mid-South Coliseum. The second at the Superdome in 81. Memphis was much better. Most recent Atlanta 05. Next show (my 10th) Sun 6th!
I'm uh..well..bear with me a minute..this is hard to say..Ok, hear goes..52 and feel like 18 (especially when the boys are touring).
My first comment I yelled out while watching the Stones for the first time I ever saw them perform (on U.S. television..Ed Sullivan Show Oct. 25, 64) was, "Mom...Dad come in here and look at this guy". Look at them"! Forty One years later...I just called them tonight on the phone to tell them, "The Stones are coming on Access Hollywood. Turn it on now"...they're still putting up with me! Mom..75, Dad..86...still the best.
