Ringo and Friends
The other night Ringo and Friends at the Ryman Auditorium was on TV. Ringo just put out a country album. This is no surprise if you had read about his background. He always loved country music. It was a fun show with lots of musicians. Some I knew and some I didn’t. Everyone knows I…

Becoming Led Zeppelin
Yesterday I went to see the new documentary, “Becoming Led Zeppelin.” I’ve been hearing about this for over a year and it’s finally out, showing in IMAX. This is the only account of their history that all three remaining members cooperated on and approved of. Surprise, surprise, I loved it! The movie was done very…

February 7, 1964
On this date 61 years ago The Beatles landed in New York City on Pan Am Flight #101. I was 6 years old. On February 11, 1964, they made their first appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show. I still clearly remember that performance and my life changed forever.

Rock ‘n Roll Hall of Fame 2024
The other night I watched the new inductees for 2024. What a show! It started with Cher. I love her, I even have a CD of hers, (which says an awful lot). I admire everything about her. I remember watching The Sonny & Cher Show. I loved it. They had on great guests, her clothes…

December 8, 1980
It’s hard to believe that it’s been 46 years since John Lennon was murdered outside his apartment in NY. I woke up to my phone ringing and it was my cousin Lauren crying, “he’s dead.” She repeated it again, “he’s dead.” “Who’s dead, what are you talking about.” She told me that John Lennon was…

Post Malone’s Tattoos
I recently saw an interview with Post Malone in which he just recorded a country album with help from Luke Combs, Dolly Parton and others. The reason I’m mentioning this at all is because of some of his tattoos. I am not one of his fans, I really don’t have any opionion about him at…

The Concert for Bangladesh – 1971
I read in the paper the other day that the concert was on August 1, 1971. Wow, 53 years ago. I was 13 years old and I remember this; I was already a huge Beatle fan and George was my favorite. I lived the album, “Living in the Material World.” It meant everythig to me,…

MetLife Stadium, Accessibility for Handicapped Individuals
First and foremost I will state that Met Life Stadium in Rutherford, NJ is handicap accessible. I’m sure because of ADA guidelines they have to be. The personnel there are very helpful. The following is my experience when going to see The Rolling Stones on May 23, 2024. In February I went online to Ticketmaster…

The Rolling Stone’s
Finally, I went to see The Rolling Stone’s! Whatever took me so long, I know, I was too cheap! Never again. The pictures below show how far away we were. They were not bad seats, but I couldn’t see them as close as I needed to be. I was lucky enough to be in the…

Paul McCartney – “Eyes of the Storm”
A few weeks ago we went to see Paul McCartney’s photo exhibit covering the years of 1963/1964, titled, “Eyes of the Storm.” This is a fairly new exhibit, the first showing was in London. I am so fortunate that the next showing, (first in the US), would be at the Chrysler Museum in Norfolk, VA.…
