Rock and Roll Diary - August 23 Through the Years

Personal concert history, August 23 August 23, 2002: B.B. King / George Thorogood And The Destroyers / Fabulous Thunderbirds - Chastain Park Amphitheatre, Atlanta For a while there, it seemed we were lucky enough to have a B.B. King bill every summer at Chastain with great opening acts. We knew how special it was, but there’s no way to know how special it was until it was gone. I remember Fabulous Thunderbirds being more toothless than I’d imagined they would be in concert, but, of course, “Tuff Enough” woke up the crowd briefly. George Thorogood put on his TedNugentPlaysTheBlues routine and, of course, he was thoroughly entertaining as a performer. It wasn’t like seeing the real thing, but George and his band were definitely devoted acolytes. B.B. King? As always, B.B. was the real thing.

Rock and Roll Diary - July 23 Through the Years

July 23, 1983 - Men at Work with special guests The Killer Whales. Red Rockers were supposed to opened but Griff's dad had just died so they had to cancel and The Killer Whales filled in admirable. This was the first concert that I went to completely unattended. I was 13 and pretty small for my age. This was also my first time in the front row before was the floor was general admission and I fought my way up front. I thought I was kickass 'cause some teenaged girl was kind of flirting with me through the show. I, of course, told her I was 16 even though in no world did I look even close. She said she was 16, too. After the show, she told me she was actually 18. EEK! Anyway, Men At Work were absolutely great and a perfect first time front row show! This is when they were at their peak. July 23, 1987 - Ace Frehley - Mother Fletcher's in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. I was still underage and one had to be 18 and up to get in.
