I saw Black Sabbath in junior high when they opened for the Rolling Stones. Floor ticket price? $6

Great shows back in that day at affordable prices. I went to dozens of shows between 8th and 12th grades. Never paid more than $6.50 for floor seats. In that day, at least where I lived, it was first come first serve for all three tiers in an arena. I grew up in a rock & roll city. Probably why the Stones had Black Sabbath opening on that leg. My mom didn't know I went with friends or she'd have been absolutely sure I was going to hell! ESPECIALLY with a band called Black Sabbath on the bill, let alone the Stones LOL

I flew up to Chicago in May as Post Malone's guest at his Wrigley Field show. Tickets for the free seat I was in - 9th row by the walkway over the audience - went for $1k. I'd never pay that to see anyone live. You and I have both seen legendary acts back in the day when concert promoters and (most) arena/stadium-level artists weren't gouging the public. We were lucky!

How terrific are these dancers?

The cat's meow :-)

That song has a bit of Brit soul ... perhaps influenced a bit by Motown records of that era. Chink guitar backbeat, and, as you say, syncopated kick and bass.
