Just random "Hey I remember when..."

I'd never heard of this group until I went to this concert. Don't think I've ever heard or played them until now.

    How did you possibly avoid this song twenty years ago?

    It was excellent best I can remember. I replayed the album last night which was surprisingly similar to the concert. Some groups are as good or better live than recorded.

    Tonight I'm going to revisit Alvin Lee and Ten Years After. I saw him in a college town bar back in the early 80's when I was attending ISU. Great guy. Sat down afterwards and had a couple beers with us.

    This brings back memories for me also. I saw them in 2013 at Oracle Park in San Francisco as part of VMWorld. I knew who they were because of Meet Virginia and Drops of Jupiter. It was a great time. The opener was a band I hadn't heard of, Imagine Dragons.

    Gotcha. Since I live near Illinois State University, that is what came to my mind first.
