My nod goes to Moody Blues first then Cars. Both are on my ipod for long drives.

How did some of those groups not get in until now? :conspiracy:

Yeah, I think it applies to all of them. But I went back a few years previous and thought the same thing about those years' rosters.

We watched a Moody Blues concert that was on PBS during their fundraiser thing. I recorded it and skipped all the commercial crap. In the end it was only about 45 minutes of concert. It was taped in Vegas and they do come here every once in a while. I wanted to go but the boss didn't. I might go alone (as I usually do to concerts). (In fact, they are here in January at the Wynn.)

I didn't realize they were still touring/playing -- way cool! They must be about the same agers as the Rolling Stones but their music is unique ...still sounds fresh today!

I kept my stub from all those years ago. The Cars LIVE at the Legendary Maple Leaf Gardens.
Nice to see them go in with the other great acts.

Wow, with Icehouse :wtg:

[Alloy Dave]

When I was growing up, there were four of us that hung out a lot....John, me, Steve, and Bryan.

Bryan liked CCR, John was an Eddie Money fan, Steve loved the Cars, and my fave was Styx.
