What’s Your Favorite Concert?
Back in 1994, I got to see my favorite band of all time and they didn’t disappoint.
I thought they’d never get back together again, let alone tour but I finally got the chance to see the Eagles. They’ve been my favorite band since I can remember.
Back when I was 6 years old, I went garage sales with my grandma. She gave me a quarter and I held on to it until the last sale. I knew that I wanted to spend it but on what? And there it was. An eagles 8-track tape (Greatest Hits 71-75) I bought it, took it home to my grandma’s house and played it on my uncle’s 8-track stereo and fell in love with the music. So, 18 years later, they announced a tour. Their first in many years. My wife got us tickets and it turned out to be the best show I’ve ever seen. And I’ve been to a LOT of shows.
Funny enough, one of my other favorite concerts was Rick Springfield. Weird, I know, right? But the guy put on a great show. The women loved it. It cost about $10 to get in (AquaFest in Rice Lake WI) but he had the crowd going the whole night.
Then I saw Chicago at Rock Fest in Cadott. I thought for sure it would be a snoozer but it turns out Chicago is AMAZING live.
