SUBJECTS: 2019 Golden Eagles Reunion; Class of 1969; Rock concerts on/near AU campus Okay, so Winnie Reed and myself, Joyce Hospodar, we'd like to talk to you about the rock concerts that she and I just attended so much through our time here at university. And so with that, Winnie's going to talk about some of the groups we saw. I remember seeing Simon and Garfunkel at the outdoor amphitheater was almost nobody else there was a wonderful concert. And I also saw John Sebastian of The Lovin' Spoonful, there was almost no one else in the audience and it was very good. Here I'll pass it back to Joyce and she can talk about something she saw. And because I love to dance, Chuck Berry was unbelievable. And so but again, Winnie and I, we just were partners all the time going to these rock concerts and we really miss doing that now. And so with that you have any questions for us.

In this clip, Joyce Hospodar and Winnie Reed discuss meeting Chuck Berry and seeing the Chambers Brothers. SUBJECTS: Rock concerts on/near AU campus Yeah. So how did you guys feel when you were there? Did you get to meet the artists? Yes. When Chuck Berry came to AU, he played at a cafeteria in Arlington, Virginia, and I got there very early, because my husband, Tim Murray, had organized the concert. So we got to meet Chuck Berry in this cafeteria. And I asked him for his autograph. And then he played with, you know, one of his usual pick up bands, so that was very interesting and good. One of my favorite concerts I remember was the Chambers Brothers, who were here at one point where they they played in what is now the Katzen Arts Center, but that used to be the gym. Winnie has a better memory than mine. So, do you have any other questions?

00:02:06.840 - 00:03:45.670

Yeah. So where were the other concerts, at the amphitheater? Were they all at the amphitheater? Well, they weren't all outdoors, no. I don't remember really where the concerts were. Do you remember, Winnie? A couple of them we saw were in the gym. Like I said, another one was a concert by [?]. And of all of the rock concerts I went to were just so loud that my ears hurt. It's really really loud. But AU had a wonderful program getting performers to the campus.

In this clip, Joyce Hospodar and Winnie Reed discuss who organized the concerts. SUBJECTS: Rock concerts on/near AU campus

00:02:50.130 - 00:03:45.670

Who did it? A club? I'm not sure who did it. I think probably was any of the employees who would organize some of the theater or any of that, and it was not that it were put on by studios. I think it was more than they had staff who organized. And you know, being in Washington DC, it was a big draw to bring some of these names that time people to come in for us, but they were usually sold out or crowded. I'm not sure but I think this might have been in college.

In this clip, Joyce Hospodar and Winnie Reed discuss lifelong friendships that started at AU. SUBJECTS: Lifelong friendships Do you have any other memories you'd like to share? Either your rock concert days or just any time in a year. Well, the fact that we are here for our 50 years, and my college roommate is here, Elisa, and those of us that are here, have maintained friends since we met each other. And in fact, when you read, then [?] was sold the Washington Post, and she came to my room at Lets Hall, and said do you want to purchase the Washington Post, and then she sat down and chatted and we are best friends ever since. And we are connected with each other. This is very true. I think that the time I spent here at AU university was wonderful, not only for most of the courses I've had, but for the people I met. I learned a lot and being here today, a lot of it is coming back.
