1979-03-20 Elvis Costello with the Attractions Cleveland, OH, Agora Ballroom
Sorry if we did this before...I can't recall.

The Police - Ghost In The Machine tour, Aug. 26, 1982. Row 8 for eleven bucks. A few months ago I paid several times that to sit on grass a hundred yards away.

I'm a late bloomer, best I can do is Depeche Mode w/OMD, 6/15/88, Chandler, AZ. I would've loved to have seen Elvis in '79. Max, was that the tour for This Year's Model?

I didn't know they had video back then. Wouldn't this be considered Old Wave?[}:)][;)][:)]
