Lynyard Skynyard Plane Crash Memorial

May 29, 1976 Lynyrd Skynyrd - ZZ Top Groves Stadium, Winston-Salem, North Carolina. The only rock concert I ever attended. It was an outdoor stadium and it rained. I mostly remember place was packed with stinky wet people and pot smoke. That was enough of that for me. Never even considered going to another concert until my wife and her friends wanted to see Alan Jackson in Charlotte, NC with Faith Hill maybe in 1995.
I entered a Christmas light contest at ROCK 101 radio station one year and won Grand prize, season passes with premium seating at Charlottes Ampitheater. We made it to 4 shows (Charlotte is a pretty good drive from here so renting a room for the night was pretty much mandatory), The Who, Aerosmith, and 2 others that I don't recall because they were country artists. Wife took a friend girl with her to those 2 shows.
I'll add this although I'm bragging a bit. My brother who lives in the city of Anderson called me to say there was a new ROCK101 billboard up in middle of town that looked almost identical to what I had created on our front lawn to enter in that contest. I had to ride over to see it and sure enough there it was. They had only deleted my message part, "Hey Santa, while in the upstate dial to". The backlighted head unit face looked the same, 101.1 in digital display just like my creation.
