Man, I feel for ya. Not meaning to rub it in, but I attended the concert, and it was a blast. I wasn't really a Prince fan (that early Rick James beef), so my highlight was during the Time set when Jerome (blessed to actually meet him in person years later) came out. Man, and your Gurl Shelia E. had the crowd in a frenzy when she pulled up the FAMU defensive back (one of your Frat) onto the stage (never forget the "Johnson" part).

I feel like I just watched an episode of the Wonder Years. Cute. 😊

And I’m going to o be laughing at this one for days. 🤣🤣🤣

Great read. My Favorite band in those 1980s was Def Leppard and it took a 300 mile drive across the Kansas state line to see them, but we did. Since I hardly remember driving home, I was damn lucky. My greatest regret was not seeing The Cars, which I let slip by when I had to work!! I would've like to have met your father.
