Everone would be in a good mood and talking about past concerts and telling stories or gossip. And it seemed everyone in line ended getting seats in the same area for the concert. I made alot of friend that way during those years. Oh, and that Fleetwood Mac ticket from 78? I still have it and the price was....$7.50 My ticket price for The Eagles "Long Run" tour was $12.50. Oh, the pain.
