👎 "There's always live 8 to look forward to, i guess"
1985 I was paying attention to what was going on. Apparently not too much.

8/15.
9/15 I couldn't tell you anything about that concert, especially who played it.
0/15....
9/15. I was 18 y/o and watched most of it on television. Guess I thought everyone would played.
I was twenty-three!
Bruce wasn't there? Why not?
Bruce wasn't there? Why not?
11 out of 15. If it was the Moscow Music Peace Festival I would have gotten them all.
5/15, not very good.
6 out of 15. A horrible score, I excel at guessing wrong. Sheesh 🤓
8/15. Mostly guesses.
USS Independence had arrived a couple months earlier for a three year overhaul at the Phil(th)adelphia Naval Shipyard. Deployed twice to the Med aboard Indy then stayed on with her at the yards until March 1988 when I left active duty just before she returned to the fleet. A year after the concert - almost to the day - a garbage collection strike turned the parking lot at RFK into a dump. I was living off base & passed by it twice a day to & from work. The stink was unbelievable. Had no interest in the concert but took the quiz anyway since it was impossible to ignore at the time. 10/15. Got a big thumbs down. Still wouldn't give a nickel to see most of them.
10/15 Didn't aced well on this one.
11/15, I remember taping it off my tv and taping it off the radio. Don't remember it that well.
I don't think this quiz is accurate.
I don't think the thumb down to those getting 10 or above is accurate.
Can you explain why you feel it's inaccurate? These facts are all easy to verify, and you can Google each if you want to learn!
I got 11/15, and it gave me a thumbs up. ::shrug::
10/15
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I thought you were kidding, but then there were other posters...so I second-guessed myself. I have to say when I read your initial response, I laughed so hard...I thought it was a riot😂😂 Even now I'm smiling. You have a good sense of humor.😄
you are possibly the nicest person here sincerely no joking i have read your pists to others and ALWAYS positive. We need more of that. and thank you for the compliment I wa subjected to lethal doses of the three stooges,marx brod.,and jerry lewis as a child so...they are working on a telethon for that🥸
posts,sorry
Thank you also for the compliment.☺️ I really have fun posting here. And you are also one of the nicest posters too. ☺️ As a little girl, my parents also watched Jerry Lewis movies and the three stooges.😄

15/15. I attended the show in Philly. I was 18. Hot day. Sat there all day without using the bathroom once. Drank 1 bottle of water. Good to be young. Great show! 🎸🎵🎤🎶
I was there too, from ealy morning to late night, then had to drive 3hrs to get home, no sleep, couldn't imagine doing it now.
I took the subway to Bridge and Pratt then walked 1 mile to my house.
