It is concert season again. As I listen to the radio I hear all the commercials for all of the acts coming around this spring and summer. I don’t know if you have priced any of these tickets but I have to say I won’t be seeing any of the bands I enjoyed as a kid or should I say what is left of them. KISS is coming soon or should I say half of KISS. only two band members are originals. At least they are not dead, just not speaking to each other. Half of the Who just came through, I can say that back in the day I saw three-quarters of the Who. The other one going around is AC/DC who as of last month only has one original member. I don’t know how these bands think that I want to pay up to $360 plus whatever fees to see guys in their sixties try to rock like they did in their twenties. I watched a video of KISS singing one of their songs about a sixteen-year-old girl. When I was a teen it was cool now to see an old man sing it is creepy! I guess these bands need to still earn a living but I will not be adding to the retirement fund of the surviving members of the rock and roll hall of fame. Instead, I think I will put that money into my own retirement account so I can afford their greatest hits album on whatever new technology it will be re-released on in the future.
