$5.99 for me in Feb ;72, and I met 'em after the show. Concerts were cheap, albums were expensive.

I had to know where they were hidden all those years, so I found the Reddit post - "They were stuck in between the side of a pull out drawer in his old dresser."
$6.75!!! I just looked up what $7 in 1975 equals to in 2022. (Would let me use decimal points) Apparently it's only just over $37 today. Which for the UK... is £28. I can't get over this. I honestly expected it to be a couple hundred at least. What the hell happened to music concerts to mean that the actual young crazy obsessed fans can't actually afford to go / bankrupt themselves in the process! This is absolutely nuts. And kind of makes me wish I lived in the 60's / 70's. Yes. A lot of horrible s**t happened. But there's also a lot of horrible s**t happening today, so....
I think the main reason is not just inflation, but how much the band grew in popularity and fame. So, while yes, it would be about $37 today, because they lasted so long, kept creating great stuff, and became one of rock and rolls' voices of a generation, the price went way up. I also feel that bands sometimes don't have much of a choice as to how much is charged, not to mention the audiences grew so much, spanning more than one generation of fans. So while albums were much more expensive that a concert back then, now it's the other way around.

I bought a Led Zeppelin CD at a thrift store and found an old ticket inside, hidden between the plastic behind the disc and the paper on the back.
I sas them at the Montreal Forum the same tour. I still ha e my ticket stub.
Wow, that hurts to even look at. Especially given the date - when they were at their prime.
They were also at their highest around that time. That may have been good for creativity, but not so much for technical proficiency. Shortly after seeing them live in '75 I saw them on one of the mid-70's TV concert shows and wasn't impressed, but having also been high for the live concert I hadn't noticed.

My all-time favorite group! I was 13 when Whole Lotta Love hit the airwaves and I can remember asking my grandmother if it wasn’t the most beautiful song she’d ever heard and was absolutely stunned when she said “No”
Where, was it found? Why didn’t they say, I want to know why it wasn’t found, before, now?
City tax .25??? Where "The Fabulous Forum" is located the city can levy it's own tax? What communist hell hole is that?
I remember getting concert tickets from tickets on about a million years ago! Crazy how cheap it was!
Hey, I remember when concert tix were about $8. That was about 2 and a half hours of minimum wage work. Today, tix are around $100, which is nearly 7 hours of minimum wage work.
I'll bet he never got a second date with who he invited. My tickets got used and are long gone. Just like my date that night. 44years! I was even younger. Three Dog Night plated at my homecoming dance in high school. I was at the movie theater instead. I'm older than dirt all of a sudden. Waitress at the last supper.
I lost my U2 ticket for the Joshua Tree tour. I had to buy a new one off a scalper and it was only a few bucks more than what mine cost. I miss (comparatively) cheap concerts!
Anyone else have a nostalgia moment at 'Ticketron' not 'Ticketmaster" :)? 1st Concert?
IIRC most of my high school era concerts were $7.50 to $8.50, including the 50 cent Ticketron service charge. LZ, Elton John, Slade with early Aerosmith as warm-up, BTO, ZZ Top, Bad Co, and more.

Be careful with old artist supplies (even crayons). Some of them can have dangerous ingredients. Lead, for example. The kinds of ingredients in some colours are unreal. Arsenic, mercury, chromium, radioactive materials... and then there are the morally objectionable ones, like 'Mummy Brown'- made from real, ground up mummies! Or Indian Yellow - made from the urine of cows only fed mango leaves and water, which slowly killed them. I'm sure there are more, but the point is; be cautious!

When I was a kid I had some little toy mice I loved to play with. I came to live with my dad when I was 12 I packed the mice up in the pocket of an old red plastic suitcase I had 3 of these suit cases When I got to my dads I couldn’t find the mice ! I looked for these mice for years ! My dad died when I was 29! I was cleaning out the attic of his house and I found a red plastic suit case I opened it up and the pocket looked fat but I knew not to get my hopes up. I opened it up and sure enough my mice were there just like I left them ! I still have them :)
Like a little shout out from kid you to grown up you. I love it!

When my dad was a teenager he had a white VW Beetle. He had to sell it. Years later when he was on his 30's, he bought a white beetle, while cleaning the interior he found a water bill from my grandparents house stuffed behind the fire extinguisher. It was his old beetle!!!
We still HAVE of Beetle. 1964 . Bought new and continuous registration though they made us change the number plate when we moved States, It now has "historic registration" as we wanted to keep it 'original' :-) Lovely cars :-)

The closest thing I have to any of this is that under the kitchen island there are the names of the people that have lived in my house and when they lived here. It only goes back to the mid 90s, but I think it's neat.

I found loads of things buried in the garden when we were making vegetable beds like a silver trinket box, an old farthing coin with a bird on, a plastic warthog, a tiny ceramic cat and lots of broken plates. I love finding interesting old things
