Fast-forward 45+ years.....last year I surprised her with tickets to McCartney's show at Petco in San Diego for mother's day. Had really good seats in the row by one of the dugouts, but still far enough away that you end up watching the jumbotrons all night (which I hate). But that said, what a show. 3 hours, and the guy just plows through his catalog. Doesnt play (for obvious reasons) some of the more harmonized vocals beatles tunes, but hits enough of them to satisfy. Maybe I'm amazed and Live and Let Die were huge highlights for me. And of course, Hey Jude. My mom was on cloud 9 for the next several days!

Cake is not the kind of band you get enthusiastic about - it's chill music to relax to. Frank Sinatra, Leather Sofa, Short Skirt ?? Maybe Going the Distance and Comfort Eagle would get a boost from the crowd but that is pushing it.

Earth Wind & Fire...it had like 2 original members and they sounded bland and boring as you could possibly imagine. Compared to how awesome they sounded in their live albums from the 70s when they were wild, it was sad.

I went to an REM concert once, and it had two opening bands. The first one was okay, and they played for probably half an hour, long enough that was I ready for them to go. The second one was (if I remember right) Wilco. I didn't really like their music, and they wouldn't leave the stage. They just kept playing and playing and playing, and eventually Michael Stipe came out and chased them off. Their singer said something about them being kicked off the tour, so I guess their plan at revenge was to bore his audience to death with bad music. They blocked the stage for so long that I only heard a half hour or so of REM before my wife needed to go home.

By the way, my wife saw this and said if there’s one act she’s seen that SHOULD have used backing tracks it was Taylor Swift. She took my girls when they were much younger and apparently Taylor thought it would be a good idea to let the crowd hear her real singing voice. My wife said it was awful.

A friend of mine who lives a few doors up the street is a pop concert video/audio editor that's done the Def Leppard in Vegas set, Brittany Spears, New Orleans Jazz Festival and pretty much everything you see on HDNET concert series. I was at his place a few years back when he was doing the last Brittany concert in 7.1 and NONE of her vocals are in the mix. It's all back up singers and Ghost singers. That said, I was at Disney a few years ago about a gig (which unfortunately, I had to pass on due to time commitments) but Mandy Moore was in the studio cutting tracks for the (then) upcoming Tangled series and she was freaking amazing. Pitch perfect, knew immediately when the take didn't work and extremely professional, courteous and charming. |

And Anthrax, lol. A very close friend of mine produced a few of their records and all I have to say is that I wouldn't have lasted 60 seconds in that situation. The drummer and bassist are related (uncle to nephew), even though they're roughly the same age. Anyway, they fight like cats and dogs, even in the studio! I've heard stories about bass rigs and drum kits being utterly destroyed by those two nitwits and all kinds of other craziness. |

The Motley Crue/Def Leppard/Poison tour was "postponed", which IMO, was a pretty crappy way to treat fans. |
