(Dave Clark):“We were good, and it was fun, but it was teenage music for a certain time in our lives, and I don’t want to ruin it and make a fool of myself by doing it over and over (no pun intended) until I’m 70.”
That’s what Mick Jagger said up into the 1980s and why John and Paul broke up the Beatles before they turned 30. Paul is STILL singing those songs.
I guess that I’m not the only baby boomer whose fondest reminiscences include shows Ive seen. Since I never had children, I can’t reminisce about cute things my children did as babies, etc. So I have other fond memories of times with friends, meals Ive cooked or eaten, trips, etc., but shows are certainly high on the list.
So I don’t go to many shows any more but am hoping to see Curtis Salgado at the Historic Everett Theatre next month. It’s one block from my little apartment.
