Sure it's cheesey now, but I loved it when it came out. I taped it off Showtime and watched it every morning while I got ready for work. It was a treat to have any live performances back in the day (touched up/redone or not). I'd watch this video at home in the morning and then as I was driving to work I'd listen to the Westwood One Jones Beach RAL show on cassette that I taped off the radio and I thought I was in heaven.

The world was much different in 1987. You actually had to write letters (with stamps and everything) to people to trade bootlegs and wait a month or two. And video bootlegs were virtually non-existent, so Red Rocks was a treat. Can you imagine?

LOL - I feel so "I walked to school uphill 20 miles in the snow each way".
Rock on ancient queen.

Lord Child - I am right there with ya! I can so remembering taping the radio shows, writing other fans and/or Ginny K. for information. I also remember taping VH-1 all night and then FF'ing the tape the next day to see if I got the new video I also read Rolling Stone every week and went to the PUBLIC library and researched her and them on MICROFICHE

I am such a loser
