This weekend, I’m going to see Rain, a nationally touring Beatles tribute act that is making a stop at the Oklahoma City Civic Center Music Hall. While this may not be a big deal for you, due to numerous embarrassing medical surgeries, I haven’t really been to a concert in Oklahoma City in well over a year now, so it’s a meaningful step forward for me.
But, even more than that, this current tribute act takes me back to the first actual concert I ever attended, sometime back in 1992—it was the pre-Pepper Beatles impersonators known as 1964; to this day, from the efforts to get the tickets right up to the actual show, it’s still one of the best concerts I have ever attended.
