Actually, most people I knew thought that was kind of dumb when it happened.
If you could go back in time and see one concert

The Battle of the Bands: Chick Webb vs Benny Goodman, May, 1937 at the Savoy Ballroom.
Chick Webb's band beat the premiere swing band in the world and Chick himself outplayed Gene Krupa. Ella Fitzgerald, a new discovery, sang with Webb's band (which also featured afro-Cuban jazz legend Mario Bauza). Goodman's band had not only Krupa but also Lionel Hampton.

The Clash at the Casbah. Granted I was alive-- but far to young to hit the Casbah.

No reefer. The police were out in force that night. The Savoy was packed - 7000 people inside, I think - and the crowd spilled well out into the street. They were worried that someone would get hit or there'd be a riot when people couldn't get in. It all went well, though.

So i'm not the only one.
Well it wasn't before I was born but me and my buddies never had the money to see Zeppelin in the 70's. Finally we all had the cash and were going to seem them in Philly and John Bonham dies about a month before the tickets went on sale.

Me too. I love T-REX, it's sad he had to die in a car crash at such a young age.
