The Rolling Stones Performed from a 'Bigger Bang' Album at Fresno's Save Mart Center

40 years ago, The Stones was in town. Some of the same guys, but much older and maybe a little wiser, returned to charm grandparents, grown children and grandkids. A whole generation was there at the Save Mart Center to cheer Mick Jagger and his band. Despite the steep price of the ticket, we managed to attend the concert in group. Some of us traveled from afar to attend the concert in the Central Valley.

Tickets costing $350 were sold months in advance. Back in June, they were sold in less than an hour when they went on sale. From that day on, those who wanted to attend the concert were in the hands of the scalpers who charged a high premium as the days and weeks went by. In fact, it was rumored that the Rolling Stones tickets were being auctioned on eBay and other sites such as hushstub for more than $2,000. The secondary ticket market made a sure killing. After all, the super band that defies age was coming to town. We had to have the best seats. Otherwise, we had to follow its schedule for the next performance. Nothing could distract us or keep us from attending. Not even the USC-Fresno State classic could not.
