Then 1976, Aerosmith released Rocks, a dirty heavy hit free album that dominated the record charts. Headliners pay the fine for surpassing the 11pm curfew. The 70's had a load of very competent bands playing very inoffensive sets as openers, most wanted more encores than time allowed and blamed the opening acts for cutting their sets short (Rush, Kansas). give a listen, every opinion should have something to back it up rather personal preference. Do Aerosmith suck?, well hardly, early aerosmith were a force as an energetic live tight hard rock band who blew away Mott the Hoople, Humble Pie ,Kiss and ZZ Top. Apparently, unlike Steven Tyler and myself, this young woman was not content to be "sleepin' in this bed alone").īad taste in arena rock.well i'm 56 and have seen over 120 shows, the 70's were an interesting time, we all have an opinion and nobody is right or wrong but all are welcome. I would later find out from a good friend that this same girl (or, actually, maybe it was her sister.I forget) had become a home wrecker well before the time she was out of college.
Wasting time with her and my friends in the parking lot of a McDonalds on University Boulevard, I can remember every millisecond of the moments when I first developed a deep, months-long crush on her, which would progress absolutely nowhere over the course of the summer and the following school year. I was out in one of those big groups that dorky kids run in at that age, when I was first introduced to a classmate who I'd somehow never met. Next came the release of "Permanent Vacation," complete with a string of huge hits and totally fun music videos for "Dude Looks Like a Lady", "Rag Doll" and "Angel" (the last of which provides the soundtrack to an absolutely vivid memory I have of a very special summer night in high school.
