LOOK! People having fun at a concert…………. WITHOUT A F@CKING CELLPHONE! Those were the days!

[@LLachs283]

people still do that. some people take short clips or a fast foto, nothing too bad. but the last concerts i visited where a blast. people had fun, the music was good. it was worse 7-10 years ago tho. but now people went back to enjoy the moment

[@robertacosta6687]

Real performers playing live and sounding better than any modern auto tuned performance today !!! Crisp, sharp vocals, instruments, the works. What a treat to see them live. Had the chance to attend their concert on December 8, 1982 in Puerto Rico. My first concert ever and to date the best one. They are this amazing live.

[@johnulmer6715]

I was there. My friends and I were about 15 feet back and to the left of the Canadian flag. Great two day show, perfect weather, and with the double stage you didn't have to wait long between music and everyone sounded great. Saga, REO Speedwagon and Foreigner were my favorites. It was here that I first saw Lone Justice, I like them but unfortunately they didn't last long. This was my last big thing I did in Germany before the Army transferred me back to the states a month later. I too really miss the 80s! Those were great days

[@stevesecor4382]

I was thinking that as well. It’s hard to beat a group of accomplished players killing it

[@neftaliperez8403]

I started listening to SAGA in 1977 since their album named "SAGA". Oh my Gosh have I been taken for a musical ride. In 1980 they played their first concert in Puerto Rico, it was the return of Rock music since the early 70s movement. That concert was packed with about eight thousand PROG music lovers that were introduced by ALPHA ROCK 106 station. Since then, SAGA has played in indoors venues in Puerto Rico seven times. My other experience was in Germany in 1982 when I arrived with the military for a three year stretch nobody knew their music until I stepped out of the base and learned that SAGA was going on tour. Truth was that I needed to see then again and in October of 1982, I went to Dortmund Germany to get a refresher experience. Love it then and love then now.

[@kaislivesoundchannel4706]

One of the very few bands ever, that kind of created their own genre.

[@lauradraves6865]

This video is amazing. Nothing like the 80’s keyboards. Such true talent the crowd speaks for itself.

[@lauradraves6865]

@Ken I would have loved to see them. There truly amazing in every way!!

[@teamtrust4394]

Hi.I was there back in 1985. I am from Germany and me and a Friend came to see Saga and Marillion. Both bands were brilliant 😍

[@bendruckmeister687]

I was there! What a legendary video clip! The first Rock am Ring at the most legendary race track in the world - The Green Hell Nürburgring. Biggest Open Air event til then with U2, Marillion, Joe Cocker, REO Speedwagon, Foreigner, Huey Lewis, Rick Springfield and many more. 75.000 people, very hot temperatures, too few drink stands and toilets, but finally probably one of the most spectacular concerts of all time!

Saw SAGA live in concert, 1982 opening up for Pat Benatar (Get Nervous Tour?). Tell ya what, that was an evening of two headliners for one ticket price. Wind Him Up & On The Loose obviously were crazy good... also remember dude coming to the front of the stage with a suitcase and placing it on a stool, opens it up towards him, breaks out drumsticks and plays electronic drums out of the suitcase for a song. Great concert!
