  • My Mom and I went to see Eddie Vedder in Honolulu last July.
    She gave Ed 2 standing ovations! It was a very memorable show.
    She was 83 years young.

    Someone who is 69 now was in their 20's in the 60's. The decade of the beginning Who, Zeppelin, Beatles, Deep Purple, Clapton, Stones, Iggy Pop (who is in his 60's at this point), Black Sabbath, just to put age in perspective. I'm sure she'll have a great time - be sure she (and everyone) brings earplugs so they have the option of using if desired.
