Monsters of Rock in Nuremburg Germany. It was held at the same stadium where Hit ler gave his famous speeches during WWII.
I still have the t-shirt (the one in the middle).

Push button starters (1910s through the 1940s), and now they're back! (with electronic sensors and coded signals) The floor dimmer switch, had forgotten about that one. (Common from the 1920s to the late 1970s)
Nostalgia for many of us.

Loving Spoonful back in the '60's before they were big. I was a base guitar player, hired thru the union, for a Shopping Center grand opening.
IT is a vague memory. I cannot remember if it was them or a group playing their stuff.
And that was my one and only "Concert" ever attended.
