In 1972 We went to see The Rolling Stones at San Francisco's Winterland... TWICE in one day!

First, I was unable to buy tickets at the brand new "Ticketron" service at Macy's Department store. The computer system was incredibly slow and a huge pile of us teenagers just lay down on the beds in the store for hours, then we were told: All sold out! So I bought two tickets from a scalper I met thru a newspaper ad in the Times Observer.

Then, on the day of the show I drove my Girlfriend Liz and two of her friends... We went to the afternoon concert. I was really bored during the Stevie Wonder performance because I was anxious to see the STONES! It was a truly exciting show. Similar to the record "Get Your YA YAs Out".

Then we went out to dinner at Fisherman's Wharf. Then we went BACK to Winterland and Debbie started crying loudly and told the policeman: "The Black Boys Stole our Tickets!" Amazingly, the policeman believed her and we were all waved into the concert! Another exciting show... and then we went home.
