This is the best I have been able to come up with. There are many more shows, but because of age, a foggy memory, lack of evidence, etc., I am unable to document these here.

I used to save all of the concert stubs from the concerts I went to. I still do I guess, I just haven’t gone to nearly as many as of late.
What does it say that you started with Billy Squire and Pat Benatar but ended with Mandy Patinkin?:)
I think there is only one conclusion one can make: I am old. 🙂
