Here's something that you would appreciate.

I went to see Bon Jovi in providence in 1989 during their "New Jersey" tour, and it happened to be Jon's birthday. We were in the 6th row, and all of a sudden, near the end of the show, confetti, streamers, balloons start raining down, and the guys come out with bottles of champagne and spray all of us. And we also got to sing "Happy Birthday" to Jon as well. Pretty cool. Remember that song "Blood on Blood" which is about friendship? well, there were 7 of us, and when that song came on, we were all yelling the lyrics to each other, as a sign that our friendship would never die.

Well, needless to say, I haven't spoken to them in 13 years:D

My biggest regret was not going to see Queen in Boston in 1984. I thought, oh, they'll be back in the US sooner or later :down:

Itzhak Perlman playing Mendelsson concerto at Wolf Trap......slightly different tastes, as you can see;)

Yes, but Perlman is a brilliant Violinist. I actually remember him when I was a kid, and he used to be on Sesame Street once in a while.

Hey what a brilliant time you must have had...great being so close to the front isnt it.....I've been in the fan club for years so we always get near to the front. Thet are playing the Borgata? this weekend I think...I wanted to go as they had special fan club seating but have no holidays left from work!!

I can understand your sadness about Queen, I only saw them about 8 times, mainly at the festivals but they were amazing...

So Blood on Blood didnt work for you and your friends!!!!

    I don't have any of his solo albums, but I do have some albums by Luther Vandross, George Benson, Miles Davis and Donald Fagen that he has worked on.


    Yes, he's an excellent bassist.

    Deep Purple without Richie Blackmore??

    It wouldn't be the same to me. Is Steve Morse still the guitarist for them?

    I saw them in 1987, it was the tour for the album after "perfect strangers". The name of it escapes me. That was with Richie.


    I've NEVER liked Lynyrd Skynyrd. I just don't care for Southern Rock at all.

    The main reason i went was to see lynyrd skynrd. I absolutely love them. They were amazing too.

    Deep Purple were good enough but im not that big a fan of them. Good as a backup tho :)
