In 1966, when I was 16, I saw Bob Dylan, the Rolling Stones, and The Beatles twice.

I'd love to have seen the Stones
@Lilymoon saw them twice at bc place. once in 1989 (hadn't been to vancouver in 17 years) and once in the early 90s (was an expensive birthday gift for my brother) sure hopes he remembers that and doesn't charge me for 300 dollar ac/dc ticket 🙏

@NativePortlander1970 thats a cool story....i see a little bit of 'ports history in them drum heads 🤗
@beermeplease To this day I'm pissed to no end at my 5th grade band teacher, he asked how many of us wanted to play drums, three of us shot our hands up, but he said he only had two spots, so we had a drum off. He chose Ravel's Bolero, which has a simple repeating snare that I caught onto near immediately and kept up, which impressed my teacher, he asked how I knew how to catch a beat so fast, so I told him Smitty Smith showed me, when he didn't believe me my mother confirmed it. When it came to the other two they were both all over the place and unbalanced out of rhythm. But guess who got the two spots? Yep, tweedle dee and tweedle dum, why? Because they had piano lessons the year before and I had not, just so they could be drummers in the 5th grade band. This was in my first year in an iowa school, in 4th grade I was in an Oregon school, where piano lessons weren't required to take drums in 5th grade band.
