wow, nice find on the ticket stub from the ELP concert!  I wanter to relate a story on this, my first, rock concert:

 

Originally, the concert was scheduled for a Thursday night, and I, being captive in a boarding school, was not allowed to leave campus on weeknights, so I could not go.  Emerson, Lake and Palmer played in Philadelphia on either Wednesday or Tuesday, and there was a big snowstorm.  The snowstorm was so big, that the Princeton University concert date had to be re-scheduled to Friday night.  The young Barrows (I was 17 at the time), incarcerated at boarding school, heard on the radio about the re-scheduled date...  I immediately called my Mom in Princeton, and asked her if she would be willing to stop by the Jadwin box office to see if anyone had turned in tickets for a refund due to the re-scheduling.  My Mom was awesome, and indeed got two tickets, front row center, to the sold out show!  As the concert was now on Friday night, i could get permission to leave my boarding school for a weekend at home in Princeton, so my roommate and I spent the weekend at my house in Princeton.  My Mom dropped us off at the show, and we had our minds blown by ELP.  My house was only a couple of miles from the Princeton University campus, and we walked home afterwards, through the deep snow, I'll never forget that walk home, my world had been changed forever.

4.  Was kind of answered in question 7...  Been an audiophile/or music lover since High School, my Father and Uncle were both audiophiles, so I was kind of raised into it.  Names like Dynaco, Quad, AR, Dahlquist, and glowing tubes were common to me from pretty far back.
