I’m Melissa Burton, a recent transplant from Brooklyn, New York to Southern California. By profession, I’m a Registered Dietitian and Certified Diabetes Educator. In my actual life I’ve been a million things 
In keeping with a “first” theme since it’s the first month of the year, I decided to share a video from the first band I ever saw in concert, INXS.
INXS opened for The Go-Go’s at Jones Beach in 1984 and I was thrilled to see them. They were amazing. I was lucky enough to see them again supporting the “KICK” album at Radio City Music Hall and that show was on fire!
Michael Hutchence was a talent lost way too soon. ”Don’t Change” released in 1982 is a classic. INXS are known for later iconic videos like “Need You Tonight/Mediate” (which is brilliant) but I wanted to play tribute to the classic 80′s INXS. Enjoy!
See you Monday!
I think my brother was at that concert. We were huge INXS fans. In fact, I remember listening to them on my “walkman” every morning commute when I worked in NYC. I think it was the summer of ’85. One of those things that stuck out in my mind.
It was unbelievable! I was also thrilled to be allowed to go to a concert. INXS and The Go-Go’s, who knew they’d be (sort of) legends?
