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.
We thought we were watching a live concert in a distant stadium. We had no idea the crowd roar was a synthesizer loop.

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

I hated those broadcasts. Canned applause and lip-synced choreography. I wanted real sweat and broken guitar strings.
