SD Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction ~A Weekend to Remember ~~The Main Event

The stage was set... It was show time.
Some of the guys hadn't played together for over 30 years,
so they had been rehearsing for the better part of the week.

While the band was busy,
we "girlfriends" enjoyed a sweet reunion.
We four tagged along with the band from 1979 to 1981...
and spent many hours together watching them 
set up, perform, and tear down.

Our guys were the opening act...
with this display on the jumbotron,
the M.C. read the history of Precious Cargo.

And then...a suprise visit from Wally Wingert,
a CHS classmate and friend of some of the band members.
He introduced the band...and then...
 it was non-stop music.


It was fun to catch glimpses of hubby 
and friends on the jumbotron.

Since there were two drummers that had performed 
with the group over the years,
hubby had a chance to come out front 
to play auxiliary percussion and join in on vocals.


They performed 13 songs in their 30 minute timeframe.
They rocked the house...

The crowd was on their feet.

There was no doubt that this group belongs in the
SD Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Hubby took this photo when he was out front...
The venue was packed!

The weekend was certainly one we will remember...

...forever!

Take care,
~Natalie
