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

Everyone on our dorm floor huddled around a 25-inch Radiant Television console with the blinds drawn.
You could hear the simulated crowd chant 'NOVA! NOVA!' between songs, but her eyes were always looking slightly past the lens.

It was a collective, beautiful illusion. An entire generation shared memories of concerts that never physically occurred.

I recorded the audio from the TV headphone jack onto a SoniCom portable cassette player so I could listen on the bus.
