There's no $ sign on a peace of mind, this I've come to know

Your list is great -
)< leaving on the 22nd of march...but too lame to figure out the ticker thing again!>
Many wasted days and wasted nights. The list is long, but I'll not succumb to probing shaky memories. Here's some important ones:
James Taylor - Brown Univ Spring Weekend, 1969. He played outside. We had no money so we gathered in groups and rushed the snow fence past weak security (first free concert).
Mahavishnu Orchestra - Constitution Hall, 1974. Sitting in the center of the floor. Orange barrels may have been part of the mid-expanding musical experience.
Throw in some biggies - Stones, Dead, Who, Zeppelin, Root Boy Slim.
JJ Cale - 5 times.
John Prine - many times at the Cellar Door and Birchmere.
Steve Earl - 5 or 6 times. Saw him open for Mary Chapin Carpenter at Ruth Ekerd Hall in Clearwater. He chased away all the blue-hairs with ROCKIN' cuts from Trancendental Blues.
Warren Zevon - last concert at State Theater in Arlington, VA. His pipes were failing and he was very accepting of his mortality.
Last show? Steve Earle unplugged at Birchmere

Social Distortion – some manner of a riot started and shut it down early
Soup Dragons and someone else at a club in Allentown, PA
Red Hot Chili Peppers and can’t remember who opened for them
Indigo Girls and again, can’t remember who else
Cheap Trick
U2, missed the first part as we broke down on the Schuylkill Expressway on the way
Black Crows
Aerosmith
BB King
Willie Nelson (I am not a country fan but OMG, it was awesome!)
Jimmy Buffett several times
James Taylor
Peter Paul and Mary (I think I have the name right, it was with my parents years ago)
Davey Jones (at a bar, surprisingly entertaining)
George Winston
And most recently……Elmo. Our three year old is still talking about the show we saw several months ago. We are going again soon, front row seats this team. I already have a headache.
I am forgetting many from college. I had a group of guy friends were communication majors and involved with campus radio. We were constantly taking off at the spur of the moment for concerts.
