  1. My biggest fear for classic rock music during this pandemic is the constant rescheduling of concerts into the next year. Many of these musicians lived the “sex, drugs, and rock and roll” lifestyle in their early days, and, in some cases, that lifestyle is starting to impact their health today. How will these musicians’ health be in order to perform in these concerts that are getting rescheduled a year from now, or even further out, depending on the length of this pandemic???

  2. Now that’s funny, because the one concert that I could of went to, at the prudential in NJ, I could of went to (hell I could of walked there from my house) is cancelled. Never could get tickets back in the day I regret I not seeing them in 80s.

    But I’m sure they can play North Dakota like Great White did, considering the bands past with concert in RI years back

    1. Charles,

      I was fortunate enough to see them back in ’84 on their Defenders tour at MSG. That was the infamous show, where the fans ripped up the seats, and threw all the foam on stage, causing hundreds of thousands of dollars in damage, and getting the band banned for life. It also happened to be my very first rock concert ever, so what an introduction-LOL!

      I caught them again, in New Jersey, I think back then it was called the Brendan Byrne Arena(?) in ’89 on their Ram It Down Tour (not a good album, but a GREAT show).

      Then I saw them on their 30th Anniversary British Steel tour, and that was also phenomenal.

      D

    2. My first time seeing JP was September 1st, 1979, opening for KISS at the Nassau Coliseum in Long Island, NY. That was my first “real” concert, before that I saw Blondie at Belmont Park in Elmont NY, that was in July ’79, and a year before that was (uh-oh) a disco show at the same place! ~ Andrea True Connection, Vicky Sue Robinson, I really can’t remember the rest! 😉
