Twenty-Nine

Today we are in 1990, at Carter-Finley Stadium on the campus of North Carolina State University in Raleigh.

Thunderstorms (with timely and untimely lightning), too many people, too many police (both apparent and undercover)...yeah, from what I understand the scene was getting weird.

Maybe that's the wrong way to put it: things might not have been weird enough!

The popularity of the band had reached new levels by this point.  For many longtime fans, the changes in the scene (and, arguably, the music itself) proved just too much - they stopped going.  But plenty of others were there to take their places, for better or for worse.

Change is tough.  But it's always with us.  How do we deal with it?  Do we roll with the changes, or get left behind?

Good luck in your journey.
