More Back in the Daze by Angel
Just had to write about seeing "The Who" in 1993. That wasn't back in daze, but it was one of the coolest concerts I've ever been to. It was the 4th of July and a really cool dude gave me 4 tickets to see "The Who". I couldn't believe it. I had done him a solid to keep him from being evicted at the apartment complex I was property manager at. Well, he in turn repaid me by giving me the blessed tickets. He was working at a local radio station and used to get promo tickets. So cool he gave them to me. Talk about good karma, you give and you receive.
Anyway, I bought two more tickets and invited my son Tom and his wife and my two incredible grandgirls to go. So it was me and my old man and my kids and grandkids; three generations of concert goer's. Man, it was so cool being there with my family. I had raised my kids on concerts when they were growing up, now they were raising my grandkids on concerts. It was so cool watching my grandgirls, 4 and 6 years old rocking out to the music. They loved it. They were dancing all around and having a ball.
"The Who" were incredible that night. Man, they played all of their famous songs. I was feeling so good and dancing and just enjoying life and loving my family being there with me. That concert brought back so many memories as the last time I had seen "The Who" was back in '75.
At the end of the show there was this incredible fireworks show. I'll never forget that night and that concert. It was the best 4th of July I've ever had. My husband became a total Who fan after that.
