The story about meeting Stevie getting into the limo with top had and stuff animals was truly incredible.
Although there are a few errors in reporting. The Mirage concert was on HBO, not Showtime. We never had Showtime and HBO was our only premium channel in those days. I would scan the HBO booklet that came every month looking again for the concert. I would tape the concert by putting a tape recorder up to the TV  At age 13 I even wrote HBO corporate offices asking them to please air the concert again. I got a very nice letter back from them too.
So that was my Mirage tour story even though I was not there  |
That's really a sweet story. I used to be that obsessed, too.
I was there. For one show(Indy). Front and center. $16! No, I didn't drop a digit. $16!!!
