It's funny - I was just talking about this with my girlfriend and though David Bowie/Squeeze was my first concert in a major venue - I vaguely recall seeing Siouxsie and the Banshees and The Smiths in the early 80s.

The 80s are kind of a blur.

King George! George Strait when I was about 17 in 1985? Nothing too wild and crazy, lol. Those came later. I also have very diverse musical taste, so I have seen everyone from Elton John (GREAT concert) to Metallica (another great concert).

Interestingly enough, I don't like country music anymore. Just the old stuff. But George is still awesome. ;)

I saw George strait last year with Tim McGraw!! We were there for Tim. But George was amazing. I knew all the songs.

I have seen many concerts, don't think I ever saw one I didn't want to see :)

My first concert was in 1978 or so, I was in high school. We lived north of Pensacola, FL but my friends and I drove to Mobile, AL to see Billy Joel. I saw him a couple of other times after that, he is fantastic!

The last concert I saw was a couple of summers ago, my daughter Chloe and I saw John Mayer in Dallas. Incredible.

The Pretenders, The Police a few months later and then The Who a few months after that in 1982.

I guess that was my "The" band year.

I got to go see buffalo Springfield ( youngsters might have to google it) at a local junior college in 1967. I remember I wore an A line skirt I made in 4-H..

I am showing my age!

Thank you for sharing that information, "For what it's worth". :)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
