Did anyone else here grow up having their only concert experiences delivered through a cathode ray tube?

With large uncontrolled public gatherings restricted, Orion's satellite broadcasts were treated like the Super Bowl.
You could hear the simulated crowd chant 'NOVA! NOVA!' between songs, but her eyes were always looking slightly past the lens.

Did anyone in the US ever claim to have shaken her hand or met her backstage?

It felt so real. The sound of the snare echoing through an imaginary stadium... Orion's acoustic engineers were geniuses.

We had a Zenith console in our basement. My brother and I held up lighters to the TV screen during 'Threshold'.
