Pah....you are but a child @Anonymous It has to be the 60's.

Though there is a quote which said 'If you remember the 60's ....you weren't there' ...I must have been a good lass then because I remember it quite well Whistle

Seriously, the 60's defined much of our culture today. The music, fashion, technology and medicine.

So I am delighted  'I was there' wink

I'll go with the 60s, there are some blanks but I do remember a fair bit of it.............LOL

 

Life was somehow easier and more laid back than now and stress was something we heard little of.

People can't understand  it now...but living through Beatlemania was madness. One Direction haven't seen anything on that scale. They may think they have.....Whistle

Then of course.... there was Woodstock....Bouncy

I saw the Beatles. August 15, 1965. Shea Stadium. Couldn't hear a thing they sang. It was great. I still have the raincheck.

That's an interesting question, and a difficult one to answer. I grew up in the sixties, and can remember playing football in the street (there weren't as many cars on the road as we see today), and we didn't have the same expectations that people seem to have nowadays. I can remember how excited we were to get our first colour television, which had a 22" screen, and was rented from Redifussion. I think the kids of today would quickly get bored watching just three channels (and no breakfast TV either). You made your own entertainment back then :smileywink:.

 

I think the seventies was good for music though. I was a big Genesis fan back then, but the first concert that I went to see in 1975 was Supertramp (with Joan Armatrading as the support act). Looking back, the fashion was a bit suspect though, with those high waisted trousers, patch pockets, and ridiculously wide flares. But at the time, we thought we looked cool :smileywink:.

No @Cleoriff , but I was pretty awestruck just to be there. Hard to believe it was nearly 50 years ago. Look at the price on the ticket.
