The comment about being the oldest person at a concert cracked me up, but I've had the opposite experience: about two years ago, I went to see Jerry Harrison and Adrian Belew (and a phenomenal backup band) perform the Talking Heads' "Remain in Light" at the House of Blues in Boston. When I was growing up, in the early 80s, just about everyone who liked the Talking Heads was older than I was, and when I went to the show, it was exactly the same thing...70-somethings who had grooved to the Talking Heads back in their RISD days in the 1970s were out in full force, and their dancing was probably better than mine!
Great post, these musical reminiscences are awesome!
