Blast from the past

[red]

This is more for those of us that are a certain age.  While flipping through channels this morning I came across Van Morrison singing "Brown Eyed Girl" on Regis & Kelli. wow, did that bring back memories! What other singers/bands that were popular back when we were in high school or college that have resurfaced? The Eagles come to mind. Of course the bands that never die such as the Rolling Stones & AC/DC are still producing records!

My son is into the Grateful Dead and going to one of their concerts this summer. He can't believe that I don't like them. I am a head banger and really like todays music. Don't get me wrong that I don't like my supposed gerations music, Phil Collins etc. I just really like the rock of today that had good influence from the '70 & '80s music. That is what is blasting in my barn. Hubby doesn't like it, he is a Doo Whap Diddity Ditty kind of guy.

I just can't imagine the Grateful Dead without Jerry Garcia!

I work part time at a venue that holds small concerts (around 300 people).  Last weekend America played.  I was surprised that they were still touring with two original members (Beckley and Bunnell).  Their new stuff sounds alot like their old stuff.  Pretty good concert, sold out for two shows.
