Music Appreciation
Related: About this forumI loves me a good old fashioned rock n roll power ballad.
I could list at least a dozen, but here are two of my faves. Both with Roses in the title.
What are some of yours?

(39,577 posts)Im not into screaming a whole song out, but a momentary outburst sometimes works, like in We Wont Get Fooled Again or Cant Buy Me Love. I dont think the two I posted are screamers. But hey, everybodys got their faves! Thats whats so cool about music.

But G+R screams in other songs which hit my brain.
A great friend loves BJovi. Shes seen them a dozen times.

(29,949 posts)Ive seen Rod Stewart five times.
Ive seen Fleetwood Mac before and since Stevie Nicks four times and Stevie two other times once with Rod Stewart.
What can I say. Love is love.
Have you ever seen Heartstrings rock wall?
She has a wall of her concerts. Its pretty impressive.
I have a Rock book with 8x10s of every group Ive seen. Many autographed.
It weighs about 10 pounds. It has about 86 pictures in it. But some picks are just groups I loved but didnt see. But I think I have seen more groups than Sue but Sue repeats groups more than I.
We have been music groupies. We met many of the guys we saw. But I say music groupies, as we werent into having one night stands with dudes. But we both could have many. Its nice now that we didnt because our memories are music and we can tell everyone about them with no regrets.
When we were young 12 or 13, our town used to book groups at our Fairgrounds.
Before we were allowed to date we had seen: Bad Finger, Tommy James, New Colony Six. Sir Douglas Quintette. The McCoys...Others I cant think of right now.
Anyway. Hope I didnt bore you.

I can only dream about all the concerts and musicians you have met. Thats totally awesome. Ive been to quite a few but no where near your experiences.
Theres something about live music you just dont get from listening to it recorded. (not that I dont enjoy both)
I wish I could have seen the greats like Zep or Floyd or the Beatles...I was still too young to be going to those
Heres something funny. Joe Walsh started out with the James Gang playing at teen dances at an Episcopal church about 4 blocks from my childhood house. My older sister got to go, but I was too young and wasnt allowed to go.
