I saw Joe Lynn Turner perform once

I was reading the above link and the man said, "My wife is too young to have even seen a Rainbow concert."

This reminded me that I was 16 when they played Madison Square Garden on their "Straight Between the Eyes" tour. Just a kid with zero money and no means to go anywhere when I saw the ad for the concert in one of the rock music magazines I bought religiously or at least every chance I got through high school.

And then one day, I found he was playing at a local supper club called The Coach House and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to get tickets. He sang all of the hits and some of his new songs, too.
