“Concerts were the biggest party of all. You spent half your summer either trying to make enough money to buy tickets or trying to score tickets. Camping out in front of record stores or department stores the night before tickets went on sale, everybody partying and listening to the music of the group you were trying to get tickets to. Good times.”
100% Search YouTube for the live version of Chicago playing 25 or 6 to 4. Terry Kath is amazing. Not the same band after he died.
Thanks Izi for the memories.
#13 You'd dial 767-XXXX any 4 numbers after and you'd get Time, some of the numbers gave you a few minutes before disconnecting you, others only 30 seconds. It was a party line, you could talk to anyone who was calling time.
#5 starting 2nd grade I walked to school and home by myself. There were a couple occasions when I was in kindergarten and 1st grade where I did that because my brother wasn't around to walk with me. And during recess, we'd go to the strip mall half a block away. If you had a nickel you could get a small piece of chocolate and with a little more the candy cigarettes and things like that at the liquor store. Sometimes you'd find cans of beer behind the store in the trash.
