Seeing the old '45 playing brought back some memories.....

Concert: Shooting Star and Heart August 21, 1985- Price on Ticket Stub- $13.50

Shooting Star- I will have to shamefully admit, that I had no idea or recollection of who this wass, or what they sounded like.  Well after  doing a wiki lookup and listening to some of their YT songs......   I still don't.  From what I heard and read, they are obviously forgettable, and am surprised Heart's management signed them as an opening act.  I got to ask, and answer me honestly.....   Do any of your remember this band? This apparently one of their awful, and cheesy ventures into what they are calling music.  Can't believe they rated high enough in somebody's book to allow a video to be made.....  Here its is....  Don't blame me, I've warned you. 


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDiiDTgBdaM

Heart- Finally got to see Heart after two earlier misses, due to other obligations.  Was not disappointed either.  Heart sure toured alot in the day, and if you missed them, you missed a good long, all the hits covered show.  I do remember this was during Ann's weight gain period, and she seems like she was struggling with energy.  Or maybe she was just ill at the time.  With 10 years and 18 charting hits by that time.  It'd would have been tough to mess that up.

This came after the cioncert, but my favorite in the latter half of their career.....

Concert:  Neil Young and the International Harvesters- September 20, 1985 Price on stub $15.50

This concert was 2 days before the 1st Farm Aid, which Young was a founder of. 

After being burnt by attending the worst concert in my concert going history a few years earlier, I decided to chance it again.  Results were mixed.  Honestly some of Young's Harvest stuff back in the early '70's were good.  But when he tinges that kind of work with C &W?  It Sucks.  But this time mixed in enough rocking tunes, it was worth the price of admission.  Best part of the show is he did Like a Hurricane in true Crazy Horse grinding and crunching style, but without Crazy Horse.

It was a lot like this.....   This isn't the burnt out hippy spotify turd, and if he tried this now he'd break a hip......

Concert:  Robin Trower and Foreigner, November 19, 1985, Price on stub- $15.00

Robin Trower- Best opening act, I'd seen since Styx about 10 years earlier.  Trower and SRV are/were the closest you would be able to ever see Hendrix channeled on stage.  Awesome long solos that Steamrolled and Rolling Stoned the crowd.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZTyAXk_LyCY

Foreigner- Foreigner was the complete band.....talent, great songwriting skills, and enough hook pop sensibiities to lure in radio play. Foreigner as we all know them really only existed the 1st 5 albums.  And of those 5, 4 were classics. (minus Head Games).  Concert did a decent job

2. Foreigner (No change)
3. Bryan Adams (No change)

The Hooters- Long before a Breastaurant and a Fox sitcom highjacked the name in the venacular,  The Hooters were a band that took their name from the nickname of a keyboard harmonica.  They were short lived, and honestly only produced four albums in the tradional sense of release. Their true debut was very very good.  And after you hear the ones that got airplay, I'll venture you remember them too.  But alas, too much...  too soon, subesquent albums were much weaker....   and they quickly faded.

The thing that sucks the most about the 80s music is the synthesized drums and the cacophony vocal effects which many bands adopted, drifting away from true rock and roll.

The thing that sucks the most about the 80s music is the synthesized drums and the cacophony vocal effects which many bands adopted, drifting away from true rock and roll.

True.  Every fad gets old and tired and flooded with soundalikes.

Basic hard rock, to punk, to New Wave, to UK wuss bands, to Hair bands, to Grunge, etc, etc.

I haven't given much attention to the modern acts, mostly because this is a classic rock thead.  My kids music pretty much stunk, but there were some songs and bands that weren't band.  I really liked this one.  Very unique sound for the time with kind of a Nirvanna / Pumpkins vibe to it.   Crap!!!!   This thing is 25 years old now.  Where has time flown?  Isn't 25 years the line for classic rock?

May 1986 List

2. Neil Young (No change)
3. Dire Straits (+2)
4. Bryan Adams (-1)
5. Toto (-1)
6. Styx (+1)
7. Bob Seger (+1)

Honeymoon Suite- Very similar story as the Hooters. Another Canadian band in the vein of April Wine......    Short term success, with a couple of really good songs, but didn't make a career out of it.  If you listened to music in 1986, I'll bet you will probably remember one of these.  Here are the good ones...

Sitting in my bed in about 1972, I was listening to Beaker Street on the radio  after midnight, and this song came on.  In my relatively sheltered existance, I had not realized that some people's mind's were this eerily messed up.  The song sure made an impression......

September 1986 List

1. Foreigner- (No change)
2. Neil Young (+1)
3. Bryan Adams (-1)
4. Honeymoon Suite (No change)
5. Toto (No change)
6. Bob Seger (No change)

18. Led Zeppelin (-1)
19. Hooters (No change)
20. Pat Benetar (New)

INXS- My favorite Australian group not fronted by the Young Brothers. INXS were kind of a latter new wave , ska-ish, funky kind of band that really had some good song writing.  MTV really helped them take off, and they had great success , with 7 platinum albums.  Not really in the true vein of rock and roll, but one of those guilty pleasures. 

A little personal back story....   The Watering Hole I frequented that I was able to see both the Ramones and Romantics for  had in their Coming Attractions board....  Coming Soon....   INXS.  I thought it would be awesome again to see a 3rd quality band at at the bar.  In fact, I bugged the shit out of the Bar Tender, on just when the band was coming.  Sadly, I think it came down to scheduling conflicts, so it never happened.   :crying:

As I said this is a band that probably would have even hit higher success, if their lead singer hadn't died.  At the time, it was ruled a suicide, but I think everyone realizes that it was maybe one of the first famous deaths from erotic-auto asphyxiation.  Terrible tragedy, and subsequent work just wasn't the same.  Before then?  Some great tunes.....
Here are some you might remember.....

October 1986 List

1. Foreigner (No change)
2. Neil Young (No change)
3. Bryan Adams (No change)
4. Toto (+1)
5. Honeymoon Suite (-1)
6. Styx (+1)
7. Bob Seger (-1)
8. Boston (New)
9. Cars (-1)
10. Huey Lewis (+1)
11. Eagles (+1)
12. INXS (+1)
13. Fleetwood Mac (-4)
14. Dire Straits (-4)
15. Journey (-1)
16. Jackson Browne (-1)
17. Pat Benetar (+3)
18. Rush (-2)
19. Led Zeppelin (-1)
20 Police (-3)

Boston comes roaring back in October 1986, based on the strength of 3rd Stage which was a breath of fresh air after Boston's disasterous Don't Look Back.  Don't Look Back may be the one most drastic drop in quality after a great debut in Rock history.  Of course, the band stated that it was a middle finger to the record company....   But Mr. Scholz, there were many of us who thought that bird was aimed at us too.  It was awful, and totally un-inspired.  And my opinion of Boston in the late '70's and early 80's reflected that.

This much was much improved, but still not near as great as the debut.  Also, if I do have one other gripe, they overdid the love song sappy shit.  Boston...   this is not a band chicks really dig...  stick with the script.   IMO..3 best cuts from the LP...

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

February 1987 List

1. Foreigner (No change)
2. Neil Young (No change)
3. Bryan Adams (No change)

10. Bob Seger (No change)
11. Bruce Hornsby and the Range (New)

Bruce Hornsby and the Range-. Pleasant soft rocking crooner of the late '80's.  Brief successful career with a number of hits in the late '80's.  Fired his band, after 3 Albums, and solo career tanked.  Tried with another band (Noisemakers -lol), and that fell short.  Most of his work in the past 25 years has been collaborations with C & W stars.  (Yawn).  But in the beginning he had a couple of  nice soft rockers, that were worth a listen.
