I’m sorta back. I’m retired and this social media stuff started feeling like a job. Posting YouTube videos and blog posts weekly was just getting to be “WORK”. I decide to take a step back and just be retired. So YouTube video making has not happened since April 23rd, two months ago. I’ve been doing a bit better with the Blog posting. Last blog post was May 30, so almost a month ago. I’ve come to a point in my Life As a Band Member where I haven’t mapped out further stories. Lazy I guess.

Anyway. This post is a return to posting with something that I was going to discus on YouTube but I’m really not inclined to do videos anymore. They’re a lot of work. Here is a list of the concerts/bands I’ve seen. This list only goes from my first concert to end of 1984 when I graduated from college. Expect another posts with another list 1985 and onward.
