- THE PRE INTERNET 70’s and 80’s! It’s so easy now to find any information! Before home computers, the internet and social media, you had to be hungry and WORK for the info! Radio was everything. And if you lived in rural America in those years you had to work to even hear good radio! I also tell an LA Guns story that was a good example of how rural Americans were so isolated then!
We traveled the entire country, five guys in an old Econoline van, finding venues with road maps and pay phones. Touring today is a piece of cake.
I just stumbled onto this and I LOVE it!
Wow, this stuff hits home. I remember and lived it. Back then if someone would have told me I could have everything at the touch of a button. I would've gone crazy for the idea. Now that we do, most days I wish I could go back to when we didn't. The easier things got the less exciting and cool they got.
So glad I discovered this channel. His Book is GREAT I couldn’t put it down
Wow, this bring back memories! Growing up in 80s in north Texas, my buddies and i would get a case of beer and drive out of town into the country on a Saturday night and find that "sweet spot", where the car radio could pick up signals from Dallas..Q102 and KZEW!! They would play all the great rock and metal that we would read about in magazines! We'd roll down the windows, crank up the radio and lay on tbe hood. Every so often, we would have to move the car a little bit to pick up the signal better! Man, those were the best times!
Steve Marriott and Steve Perry are my favorite singers no doubt
You're absolutely right! It's too easy today, just press a button and you can look up anything and everything. And no one is hungry, everything is taken for granted. Such a shame. The internet is good for so many reasons but I think it will be the downfall of our youth.
So true! 💜🤘🏻💜
DC5 & LA Guns in the same vid. Love it
The diner story's great! I could almost see them thinking they were the Stones if Tracii was chanelling his Keith look that he had for a short period of time...BUT NOT IN 1988! 😂
I remember there was a time when getting into a venue to see your favorite band was just as hard as a starter band trying to sell tickets to help a venue pay for the headliner act aka Pay to Play. Thank you so very much for your wonderful content I especially love the Motley Crue stories and the L.A. Guns stories . This whole age of entitlement is completely a lie no one should be given anything. Back in the day if you wanted something you had to go out and work terrible jobs just to save enough money up to buy what you wanted life was not meant to be handed to us on a golden platter, life is brutal and very hard with way to many heart aches and pain the internet can be helpful but also turns some people into mindless, entitled, disillusioned ignorant people.
True!
Ciao!
LAG as the Rolling Stones lol, good advice at the end btw
One night while gassing up at a Circle K in Florida (1988) a guy was convinced I was John Regan (R.I.P. John) from Frehley's Comet😹😹😹😹😹
new Mike video drop🔥🔥🔥
Got “Stay Hungry” in my head now. Great advice, mf! Cheers.
What happened? You "forget" about this channel?
night time in the winter am frequency from new york could be heard down south
I’ve always said I wanted to grow up in the 80’s. I liked the diner story, that’s hilarious, I live in Kentucky. Do you remember what area of Kentucky you guys were?
