Happy Halloween To All Members

Fifty years ago. In Detroit. You could have seen Pink Floyd. And Alice Cooper. Tickets were only $5.00 USD. How many of you recognize the other names? I know some of them.

The concert was held at the old Olympia downtown where the Red Wings used to play. I’ve never been to the Olympia as it was demolished in 1987 (although I was born before that).

Alice Cooper is still performing today in his 70’s. Recently he covered Lady GaGa’s “Born This Way.” In the 60’s and 70’s he often performed with a live snake on stage. Part of his stage act consisted of a “mock execution” through hanging, electric chair, or guillotine. “Shock Rock.” Way ahead of his time.

This would have been awesome to go see. Wish I had a time machine.
