My first concert was Led Zeppelin in Madison Square Garden. I have trouble recalling many things ... I worry that I am losing my mind but I am certain that many firsts will stay with me for the time being.So glad to be back and thank you for the memories.Rissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02751796723272597880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915339669985059502.post-85206817658509909452016-03-02T06:28:50.451+11:002016-03-02T06:28:50.451+11:00All through the years we celebrated "firsts&q...All through the years we celebrated "firsts" in our family, from first steps of course to first car, etc. Your post brings me to the "first" time I heard about the Beatles. We all laughed at the insect name, wondering what in the world was going on. And then I saw them in concert, my first. I guess one could say the rest is history! Thanks for starting us all off to our own favorite "firsts" Alan.Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915339669985059502.post-63402830297029478362016-03-02T00:49:22.037+11:002016-03-02T00:49:22.037+11:00My first album was Fleetwood Mac's Rumours, wh...My first album was Fleetwood Mac's Rumours, which my sister gave to me for my grade 8 graduation. My first live concert was Rush in Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto, in 1985. I heard them interviewed on Saturday and have been thinking about them ever since.

Your words "poetic protest" stand out to me in this piece. I think of a lot of poetic protest happens often in our hearts and minds. When we write, we let that protest manifest into something beautiful. Thanks for the inspiration and I look forward to your SOL posts.<br />Keith<br />Eduardohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14476950308932164983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915339669985059502.post-80588605719338949762016-03-01T23:22:01.640+11:002016-03-01T23:22:01.640+11:00Alan,
