    I've loved Heart for many years. Always from a balcony or rear of a stadium. Until.....they came to Kansas, about 2005ish, to the State Fair.
    The lady I happened to be family caregiver for secretly bought tickets and then surprised me with the concert. State Fair venues do have a smaller venue that's more intimate than a large large venue. Since this lady was handicapped, she got tickets down front for her and her aide.
    25-30 feet from them big azz speakers, and the front of the stage, where I was treated as though I were one of their traveling Fans, singing Crazy On You with Nancy, even though they never saw me again. Two of the most dynamic, elegant, Rock n Roll ladies in the world. I shall pass from this world one day and I'll still be a fan. 😊❤️

    Both gorgeous in many ways. Ann and Nancy wrote and performed stellar songs that really pierced the hearts of millions. Their voices and harmonies are so blended and their talents are out of this world. Beatlemania ran in their blood and it reflected the greatness of the Fab Four in their songwriting and performances live and in the studio. These two sisters are role models for the rockers who avoided the enigma of stardom not into drugs, etc. That is very admirable for their strong character and fantastic music. Our hearts congratulate them for music well done!

Problem was those tickets were so inflated$$.I got Def Leppard VIP package for good seats, and traded my Def Leppard swag and our seats after Heart (never saw Def Leppard and didn’t care) for a Def Leppard fan’s great photos of Heart, later emailed to me. 😆 Great times.

She and Robert Plant I have immense respect for, not only their past contributions but to their continuing dedication to their craft.

Just really enjoyed their music and had a crush on both of them. By the 80s I lost almost all interest in rock music. What they said about imaging during the 80s was true. The music really did suffer. Nothing like the late 60s & 70s.

      I recently saw how Miley Cyrus was singing at age 17 and then 10-15 years later, she still has the same character, but my lord, how much more pressure does she has to sustain. And how different she looks. It is a continuous fight to remain the same authentic person once the spot lights are turning on you.
