#1. The Cure. Dodger Stadium. 1990.

The Cure again a couple of years ago at the Hollywood Bowl. They still got it.
Offspring in '95.
Presidents of the United States of America in '95.
Van Helen, WITH Diamond Dave, a few years ago.
KISS a couple years ago.
Depeche Mode a few years ago.
Duran Duran at Jimmy Kimmel, and again at Hollywood Bowl.
Niel Diamond several times. Always amazing.
Imagine Dragons a few years ago.

One of my favorites are the Flashback 80's concerts hosted by Richard Blade. They get a bunch of 80's bands together and each plays a few of their most memorable songs. Berlin, OMD, ABC, General Public, The Flirts, Drama Rama, Bow Wow Wow, Howard Jones, Human League, Men at Work, Psych Furs, Spandau Ballet, Marc Almond...
Tom! You are the FIRST person I've ever known who likes Presidents of the United States of America!! So awesome!! Dune Buggy!

I knew I liked you Tom! ?
Those were ALL of my favorites!
I would have loved to see Van Halen though..back in the 80s. When Roth used to JUMP off the drum set AND do a split before landing! Must have been one heck of a show!

One of my favorite bands to this day. Concert was fantastic, and I wish they had done more. "Millions of peaches, peaches for me."

So many good songs back then. It just wasn't Van Halen without Dave. I just never cared for Sammy's voice.

yeah... i punched a girl after she was talking crap and pushed me.. yet she doesn't get in trouble and I do. I got two days OOSS and one day ISS. she got half a day ISS

Wow. That stinks!
Next time maybe just let her talk cr*p and walk away?
No pushing no pinching or punching.
(Ok.... MAYBE you could turn around and yell back , “ you’re such a baby! Don’t have any friends unless you spread gossip?
and rumors?”
“You know they ONLY like you because you make stuff up!” “NERD!” —
(Or how you guys say things now a days.)..?

It’s not worth your schooling.
You will find out years later that she ruined your good record.
AND! ... led you down a road that you wish you never took.!!!
I know this sounds like a bunch of.......s**t,
But TRUST ME!!.... when you are a little bit older you’ll say to yourself .
“Man! I could have turned out to be an inmate rather than a police officer!”

Then hunt this girl down and find something to give her 60 tickets for!!! (Fill your quota on her butt alone!)??

Wishing you luck! ??

One of the most fascinating things I learned in growing up was that all the kids who were in the country club set or the "in crowd" growing up were just little dweebs when they got out of high school, just like us poor schleps who grew up with them all those years. That little harpy you collided w/yesterday is going to run into a much bigger harpy. They always, always do.
