your OLDEST concert ticket stub?? I remember @ some point in the 90's I started tossing my Prince ticket stubs in a cannister. I'm not really into keepsakes & shit so I thought the oldest one I had was from the mid 90's or so.
So I'm going through boxes of old shit & I come upon the stub from my very first Prince concert  I know it's kinda goofy but I had no idea I'd even kept the thing. It's from the Lovesexy tour in '88!!  And the ticket was only $22.50 - yes, I had shitty seats  But it brought back some memories, I can still see that stage & hear thousands of us singing the chorus of "Anna Stasia" in my head 
the stats: tour: Lovesexy World Tour date & time: Thurs, Nov. 10, 1988 @ 8pm venue: Oakland Coliseum price: $22.50 ticket color: yellow what Prince show # was this for you?: my first
If you still have them, what's your oldest concert ticket stub?    I never met you, but I LOVE you & I will forever!! Thank you for being YOU - my little Princey, the best to EVER do it | |

If you are talking about ANY concert and not just Prince...I have a 1977 (maybe 78) stub from a KISS concert (AC/DC warmed up for them!} I ended up going to this concert with my older brother, who had an extra ticket and didn't want me to go! Ready for the ticket price?.....$8.50 That's eight dollars and fifty cents and KISS was a big name act. My earliest Prince stub was 1987 Sign O the Times tour. | |
