We also saw Freelance Vandals at Pastime but the greatest thrill of my life (and my first concert ever....with fake ID) was seeing the Ramones at Pastime in '79. We were five feet away from them and the place was packed (I couldn't hear properly for hours)! One of my greatest regrets was losing that ticket stub that I had held on to for many years. Pastime would print up these beautiful, Roxy-type, tickets for many of their bigger shows and The Ramones ticket was awesome. I'm so pissed I lost it at some point, the pack rat that I am. There were so many great clubs on the Island back then. Hammerheads was huge, and all the great bands played there (Otter Creek, Crystal Ship, Good Rats, The Vandals, Zebra, Sister, you name it). What a music scene back then. I even saw U2 at Malibu in 1980 or 81. I love this forum!
