Never got to go to a concert until I was in college....My Mom was pretty strict on me during the late sixties...Had a chance to go to Woodstock but my Mom said absolutely not....I miss my Mom, she was the greatest....

Well played, Pete.

Salvatore Bono and Cherilyn Sarkisian.

When the two met in a Los Angeles restaurant in 1962, Sonny was 27 and Cher was only 16.
They had a popular variety show on TV in the 70's.
They split up and Cher went on to marry Greg Allman, that didn't last very long either.

Are you a fan of Dream Theater? I'd heard of them but really didn't know their music. Seems like Yes meets Rush meets Iron Maiden. Mix of metal and prog.
Yes, I've seen them also with Deep Purple. I like them in smaller doses as it starts to sound the same after awhile. Your comparison is a good one.
