I've never seen them, but one of my best college friends (he's from Syosset) told me that his friend caught one of the concerts at the Garden that were used to make up the Ya-Ya's album. I'm still in touch with him.
I'd love to get in a time machine and catch
both
of those performances.
Returning to the American concert scene after a three-year layoff, the Rolling Stones recorded GET YER YA-YA'S OUT! during a triumphant two-date stand at Madison Square Garden in late November 1969 that found B.B. King and Ike & Tina Turner opening for them. Having amassed an impressive recorded output during their three years away from touring, the Stones peppered their sets with hits, including "Honky Tonk Women," "Jumpin' Jack Flash," and "Street Fighting Man." Tipping their collective hats to Chuck Berry, the band also included covers of "Carol" and "Little Queenie" alongside more blues-influenced numbers such as "Stray Cat Blues" and "Love In Vain."
Having been a member of John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, new guitarist Mick Taylor parlayed his experience into some impressive slide guitar work. The pièce-de-resistance of what is arguably the best live Rolling Stones recording is the eight-minute-plus reading of "Midnight Rambler." Between Mick Jagger's unearthly harmonica playing and the tight interplay between Taylor and Keith Richards, the sinister vibe emanating from this song was eerie, foreshadowing the tragedy that would occur at Altamont less than two weeks later.
Apparently, stupid people
don't know
they're stupid. -

Let me guess..
In highschool, you were the guy who walked around in the AC/DC, Iron Maiden, Motley Crue, Judas Priest, and Black Sabbath t-shirts?

I thought Mechanic was a metal head in HS, turns out he wasn't. I dated a guy who was heavily into metal back then, however, I was not. To each their own.

Patrick's thread about buying a record player inspired me to look thru 12" mixes on YT, and I ended up listening to hours of stuff on there.
I ended up listening to R.E.M., even though I couldn't get much into their music, much of it is really awful, but I was hooked on these -
Are you okay?
