Snowing hard here - 14" and still going. Biggest snow since the blizzard of '78 'round here.

My very first concert in the USA was a ticket to Simon & Garfunkel at the Carousel Theatre in W. Covina SoCal, April 1967.
At 18 I had thumbed from Mass, heading to see the Big Sur, took a job at an IHOP to replenish my wallet. The theatre was just down the street and I was pleased to spend my hard earned $* for a ticket. The audience was very sparce - the Carousel had a stage encircled by seats. Art looked around - and said, "please, everyone come around here in front of us - and move down to the stage" I sat maybe 20 feet from them as they performed an all-acoustic set. Superb - even joked about having given their song Red Rubber Ball to the Circle....only for it to become a bit of a hit! Later that year The Graduate came out - and they became very popular!

*ticket prices were much different in those days - friends gave us a wedding present of tickets to see Joan Baez at UCLA, Dec '67. They paid @ $3.50>$4.00 for each.
