I think it was a concert at the beach under a big tent during an annual fair called Springfest and it was Peter Noone (Herman's Hermits), Mickey Dolenz (Monkees) and a third performer from another band who I can't remember performing together or it was the same Springfest in a different year with Gary Puckett (Gary Puckett and The Union Gap) and The Association. That was around 2010 - 2013. The last real concert I went to was Bruce Springsteen in 2003. It was the day after Johnny Cash died and Springsteen opened the show with a Cash song which I thought was pretty amazing since there was no time to rehearse it and it sounded good or it was Los Lobos. Can't remember which was first.

Thanks, Pam! I always appreciate early birds!

Is your cell phone an Android or an iPhone? My cheapie Pay-as-I go phone works well for me. It's all I need for business purposes, and I pay only $25 every 3 months.

When did you get your first cell phone? In the early 90's I had a "bag phone" in my car.

Do you use your phone for email? No. I only use my cheapie phone for checking e-mails, while on the road, and I don't send e-mails from that phone.

Have you used your phone to post on with a string to see whether that would work as a telephone? No

Have you ever placed a glass against a wall or door, and then placed your ear against the glass, in an attempt to eavesdrop on a conversation taking place on the other side of the wall or door? No

Can you play the piano, even if only just "Chopsticks"? I can play a little piano, mostly tunes I learned as a kid

What's your favorite music genre? 70's-80's Rock

Have you taken music lessons? Yes, piano.

Did you have music class in elementary school? Yes

Rate your personal rhythm between zero and 10, with 10 being most excellent. I think, I'm a 10!!! Of course, others may not share my opinion. My professional drummer son taught me well!

Have you ever heard a handbell choir perform? Yes

What was the last concert (any type) that you attended? 3-4 weeks ago, a dynamic tribute band at a local theatre.....Aerosmith!!! A very memorable event! My next concert is another tribute band, The Stones, Saturday night. I typically don't enjoy "tribute" bands, but these are excellent performers! I'm so looking forward to this weekend! I've attended countless live rock 'n roll concerts over the years. I have great memories, but one that stands out is Queen, with Adam Lambert....in Philly. Music was outstanding, but the light show was too much for me. I figured out later, why everyone wore sunglasses to the show.

Have you performed in a concert? Music concerts in high school, percussion.

Have you performed in a recital? Yes, the dreaded Piano Recital. I always FROZE!
Thanks, Pam

Good morning, PJ and THANK YOU! I'm sick at home today, hacking up a lung. I haven't been sick in ages - years, actually. I even took one of my free COVID tests (negative) because I was so pitiful yesterday.

Anyway, here goes:

Is your cell phone an Android or an iPhone? Android.

When did you get your first cell phone? Gosh, I had a BAG PHONE in my car if you can believe that, back probably in the mid 90s.

Do you use your phone for email? Yes.

Have you used your phone to post on City-Data? Once in a blue moon but usually no.

Have you ever used a megaphone? Yes.

Did you ever try connecting two tin cans with a string to see whether that would work as a telephone? Yes, when I was a kid the next door neighbor and I did it and it worked pretty well.

Have you ever placed a glass against a wall or door, and then placed your ear against the glass, in an attempt to eavesdrop on a conversation taking place on the other side of the wall or door? No. Hmmmm.....

BONUS QUESTIONS

Can you play the piano, even if only just "Chopsticks"? Yes, more than Chopsticks. I took lessons for about seven years. I have a gorgeous hand made Yamaha piano that my parents bought for me in Japan.

What's your favorite music genre? Probably classic rock. I really love the 80s though, and funk too!

Have you taken music lessons? Yes, see above. I also took piano lessons again in college.

Did you have music class in elementary school? Yes, and I always loved it. I remember that we sang "If I Had A Hammer" one year for something or other.

Rate your personal rhythm between zero and 10, with 10 being most excellent. I'd say about an 8. But I cannot do Zumba. At all.

Have you ever heard a handbell choir perform? Yes, and I've been in one too. Beautiful.

Oh wait, I just remembered - I went to an outdoor venue and saw some guys playing oldies but goodies (as in 1970s rock) just Saturday night - does that count as a concert?

They played Mustang Sally and then Play That Funky Music and I just had to dance!
