It was my Senior year in High School 1982 and my good buddy got hooked up from WRIF Tickets for "The WHO" live in concert at the Pontiac Silverdome. My Birthday was the day before September,29 talk about a great gift taking me to the concert of the year. The news reported the sold 75,000 tickets. I think the Silverdome held 80,000 and we got to Main floor along with 10,000 other fans. Being late September I remember it being pretty warm like almost in the 90's and even hotter with a bunch of Rabid Rock fans. The Clash was the opener and it all started with THE Money Man Eddie Money. Eddie's No Control album was the song of the Summer with "SHAKIN" being a huge hit. Eddie had a incredible set well received by all followed by the Clash which did not so good. Their big hit Should I Stay or Should I Go was received with everyone yelling Please just "GO." The sound in the Silverdome was terrible but I think for a brief moment everyone got their "Eddie Money's Worth."
