I saw Linda three times in concert, all at the (now gone) Universal Amphitheatre here in Los Angeles: May 19, 1995 (Feels Like Home tour); July 20, 2004 (three days after the Dust-Up In The Desert); and July 7, 2006.

I am also into my twenty-third year of concert-going to the Hollywood Bowl, which, this year, began this past Saturday with the official opening night of the summer season and the appearance of John Legend with the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra. My first time was in July 1997, when Sir Simon Rattle conducted the Los Angeles Philharmonic in a concert that featured pianist Lars Vogt in the Beethoven Piano Concerto No. 1, followed by vocal soloists and the Los Angeles Master Chorale in Beethoven's immortal Symphony No. 9, the "Choral".

My first almost concert was Woodstock but it was raining so bad that week (Long Island) I decided to work that weekend. Many people turned around as it was just a crowded muddy mess.

I would have to break out my college yearbook for the list but Bee Gees, 5th Dimension, Bloodrock, Pure Prairie League, James Gang, Exile and many others come to mind. It all led up to my second semester Linda Ronstadt Earl Scruggs concert (photo at left) which was an unexpected highlight because that concert was an add on in April 1972. Linda was the opening act and the only person on campus who was really aware who she was would have been me. My dorm room was a shrine to Linda. It was a benefit concert and was the only concert where admission was required ($3.50) so it was like pulling teeth to get my friends to go. After the concert a bunch of people I never knew started showing up at my room to see the shrine. Linda made quite an impression. She was very charismatic in her own shy way and made instant fans. Her popularity was the result of a LOT of hard work but she would never be denied. She earned every bit of her fame and fortune the hard way.

 A reminder of how horrible a person Ted Nugent is - Two women have accused Nugent of having sexual relationships with them when they were under 18 years old. In 1978, Nugent began a relationship with seventeen-year-old Hawaii native Pele Massa. Due to the age difference, they could not marry so Nugent joined Massa's parents in signing documents to make himself her legal guardian. Courtney Love also claims that she performed fellatio on Nugent when she was 12. On The Joe Rogan Experience, Nugent denied that he had ever been in romantic relationships with underage girls, other than when he was underage himself. This goes against what Nugent previously said in a Behind the Music episode, where he admitted to several affairs with underage girls. Is a major gun nut, has made racist and borderline threats of violence against Obama and Democrats. The words to his 1981 song Jailbait - I've got no inhibitions

So keep your keys out of your ignition

I steal a car like I got the curse

I can't resist the old lady's purse


Jailbait you look so good to me

Jailbait won't you set me free

Jailbait you look fine, fine, fine

And I know I've got to have you in a matter of time


Well, I don't care if you're just thirteen

You look too good to be true

I just know that you're probably clean

There's one little think I got do to you


Jailbait you look so good to me

Jailbait won't you set me free

Jailbait you look fine, fine, fine

And I know I've got to have you in a matter of time


Sad but true


So tell your mama that I'm back in town

She likes us boys when it's time to get down

She's got this craving for the underage;

I just might be your mamas' brand new rage


Jailbait you look so good to me

Jailbait won't you set me free

Jailbait you look fine, fine, fine

And I know I've gots to have you in a matter of time, now babe


Honey, you, you, you look so nice

She's young, she's tender

Won't you please surrender

She so fine, she's mine

All the time, I woke my mind


It's all right baby, it's quite all right I asked your mama


Wait a minute officer; wait a minute officer

Don't put those handcuffs on me, what about her?

Hey, I'll share her with you!

I think I've been very lucky but regret never having seen Linda, Emmylou, Patty Griffin and the Eagles
The only bad one was Runrig which was like a Scottish Nationalist rally, but no regrets as I only really went to see the support act

[cymru56]

Forget to include the wonderful Joy Lynn White, Lily and Madeleine, Laura Cantrell, Trish Hinojosa, Raul Malo and Alison Moorer

And add to the regrets Tish who I had tickets to see until she cancelled to appear on Letterman.

Absolutely. And I think we ought to get back to the positive here because of that.

[cymru56]

Well I certainly have positive memories of two other brilliant concerts by The Wailin Jennys and Courtney Marie Andrews
