Concerts

So I am happy to find out that Tom Petty is coming to the Frank Erwin Center in Ausitn on 5 May and it’s a Saturday. Tickets on Sale Friday at 10 AM and I’ll be On-line for sure.

This got me to thinking and remembering concerts I’ve been to. Not a lot, but all entirely fun. I am sure I must be missing a couple.

I have missed seeing such great bands as Electric Light Orchestra, Fleetwood Mac, Journey, Foghat, Blue Oyster Cult and more. Some, in re-configured line-ups, still tour on occasion. But alas, ELO I will likely never get to see.
