Concerts (First, Favorite, Fail, and Future)

[Rev. Rye]

First concert: Motley Crue (at the Elbow Room, sometime in the 90s)
Favorite concert: Kansas (Three Rivers Music Concert in the 90s)
Fail: Pat Benatar (not her fault, the sound system at Characters failed her)
Future: Carolina Chocolate Drops

Never been one to travel, but if they come to me, that's different. Columbia SC had a much more vibrant music scene in the 90s. I also saw Hootie and Ani DiFranco (in this century, went all the way to Charlotte).

Wait, the Carolina Chocolate Drops are still together? I thought they've been dormant since 2014.

Also, one particularly notable fail happened when I saw The Who live at Tinley Park in 2002.



It's not actually in this video, but the little caption at the beginning alludes to it. They played "Love Reign O'Er Me" twice in a row, because the first time, Roger's hearing aid stopped working, and he lost his place, so he just stood there for an entire verse. Eventually, he got it to start working again, so played it twice.
