Default Great Concerts

Back in the day when I first saw Heart- Their opener was John "Cougar"
The only tune that any one knew was Jack and Diane, but he was amazing as well as his band.
I remember the night and his voice and it still gives me chills.
He finished his set and all he did throughout the hour was vocals and dancing at the mic stand, it was fun and enjoyable and he was great.
For an encore he comes back on stage alone with a black accoustic guitar, and a blue /white light shining down on him and does a
solo cover of
The Stones- "You can't alway's get what you want"!!!
I mean it was sacreligious -No one would cover The Stones!!!!!
He was excellent both on guitar and vocals, you could have heard a pin drop-
I'll never forget it.

Then Heart came out and rocked away the rest of the night
What a great memory -
And how lucky I am to have grown up while this stuff was actually happening.
That was a geat time in music. I mean Barracuda was a new song!
And then they did (which is now signature, but at the time -sacreligious-
"Battle of Evermore" (I think it was..) anyway a Led Zep cover!!!!

Amazing time to be attending concerts, plus tickets were like $20.00 haha
I am feeling old
