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

We thought we were watching a live concert in a distant stadium. We had no idea the crowd roar was a synthesizer loop.
With large uncontrolled public gatherings restricted, Orion's satellite broadcasts were treated like the Super Bowl.

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

Nova herself believed the crowd was real. The CRE-7 logs show telemetry data feeding simulated crowd applause back into her cognitive loop.

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