  3. Please continue to do these throwback videos. Not only do I enjoy them immensely, but you are doing a huge service to the community, many of which might not know about these things, either because they are too young, or because they weren't living here back then. I can't thank you enough for this.

  5. Thank you for this! You have no idea how important it is for millions of Madonna fans to see more footage of the Virgin Tour, especially in pristine 60fps, as if it were broadcast on TV today. Amazing. Love Madonna so much!

  6. I can't hide my surprise... It's like Mona Lisa is starting to move.

  11. I am sitting on the sundeck on the top floor of Horton Plaza watching this video. It’s now largely deserted, there are no businesses up here anymore. It seemed fitting to watch these clips and remind myself what this building used to represent to the city
    23
  12. I remember watching Tom Selleck and his team play on Long Island, NY at Nassau Coliseum with some of my girl volleyball team High School players back in the day. We did not know he was there, but got wind from the audience saying his name. We actually decided to have a little fun....and said out loud "Ow did you hear Tom Selleck seems to have a sprained ankle and is not playing today." We didn't let it go on for too long and screamed out....."Just Kidding!" He actually is a good volleyball player not to mention good look'in! LOL
    22
  13. R.I.P Larry. Loved your stories and sense of humor.

  14. Imagine all those kids being interviewed all grown up now and probably taking their own kids to Legoland
    20
  15. You will never be forgotten Larry.
    17
  16. I was there! Stood in that damn line for hours at 15 yr old..
    17
  17. Turned into a fine player,and wonderful man like his Father xoxoxo

  24. This is literally golden 😍

  25. I was there! And on a lark, too. I was 19 years old and in the US Coast Guard. We were in San Diego down from Seattle for sea trials/rough training. Someone couldn't go and I bought his ticket on the cheap at the last minute. Something like 5 or 6 of us then shared a cab from 32nd Street Naval Station. George Thorogood and the Destroyers and then J. Geils Band opened for the Rolling Stones, but we didn't get to the stadium until George Thorogoode was half way through their set. It was a beautiful warm, sunny day. Great show! I'd never been to San Diego before and San Diego was awesome the 2 weeks we were training. So awesome that I moved back to San Diego when I was discharged from the Coast Guard a couple of years later. Lived here ever since! Retired now, and San Diego is still an awesome place to live, work, and play! ; )
    13
  26. I was there too. Was allowed to bring in a thermos of Rum & coke!!!!! Awww the good old days!
    12
  27. I was there. I was 17. I was an aspiring rock drummer with my eye on the big stage! Loved the Stones! I've seen them only 3 times I believe. Two more times at Petco. Hope to see them at all their future tours. If I to pick one favorite song, Shattered. I was in that line. We had spent the night. We were chanting " 2,4,6,8, "open up the fuc*ing gate!" I watched all three bands, Thorogoode, J.Geiles and Mick and the boys from the field!!! Can't believe they had allowed Gen Admission tix holders onto the field! I think tics were $25 bucks. Don't remember seeing any fights. The scene in front of the stage was something out of the 60s. I remember seeing this one girl making the rounds, wow! People playing catch with a football, a smoke grenade being tossed around. The concert made a huge impact on my early life which led me into a lot of good years playing drums in cover bands! Shadoobie🎸🎤🎷🎹🎺🥁📯🎵🎙🎼🎸🎶🥂🍷🍻🍹🙈🙉🙊

  28. Love this! Slice of life from the 70's. Oh how times have changed.
    12
  29. I was there in the front row. It was at the Community Concourse in the Civic Center. The minute the curtains opened, all hell broke loose. It was crazy. They only played for about 20 minutes. I think they ended it early because Brian's ribs were taped from being pulled off the stage in San Francisco a few nights earlier, and there were girls trying to do the same thing again. My friend Nikki was president of the San Diego Rolling Stones fan club and got to meet them backstage before the show. I was Vice President. It was open seating, and we waited in line for about 5 hours so we could get seats in the front.
    12
  30. Legend has it their still riding
    12
  31. she's smokin hot

  43. Caminiti owned this town in the summer and fall of 1996. Such great memories. I was a sophomore at Poway High School Back then. It seemed like Caminiti hit a homerun every night. He really energized this town and put the Padres on his back into the postseason that year. I'll never forget how fun it was watching him play.

  50. Larry was the bomb, a genuine, down to earth tv personality from San Diego for many decades ,really bummed he passed on the way he did. Damned cancer man, it does not discriminate.
    8
  51. Thanks for posting this. This is awesome. Its like they hadn't quite figured out skateboarding yet and it was more of a dance sport or gymnastics event.
    8

    7
  73. Year I graduated high school. Wow... Redskins smoked the Donkeys 42-10. Remember it well! Williams still holds a record, throwing 4 TD’s in a single quarter. Fun fact, Al Bundy also scored 4 TD’s in 1966 for the Polk high school Panthers in the city championship. One was the winning TD in the final seconds against his nemesis, Bubba “Spare Tire” Dixon. 🎶The more you know 🎼

  86. Spent many a early morning after a gig in the late 70's enjoying some roots with the band at Jimmy Wongs.. You could say it was the show after the show.. lol :)
    6
  87. What an amazing time in our city's history. I was 13 years old and an 8th grader at Twin Peaks Middle School. I had gone to the stadium with my Dad to welcome the team home after they returned from beating the Steelers in Pittsburgh to win the AFC Championship trophy. 70,0000 fans packed into the stadium to welcome the team home at 11pm on a worknight. The Chargers going to the Super Bowl brought the city together like nothing else ever had.
    6
  88. Great stuff. Love these time capsules but old address or more information of filming locations would be great to go with these glimpses of this fine city's past so that some of us could delve a little deeper of what once was San Diego.
    6
  89. Thank you for the coverage of news from Tijuana MX because a lot of people we have family members in both sides of the border in my case the phone lines were down here in Tijuana no mobile phone no electricity and my grand parents live in San Diego Co. And I know they were worried!

  134. CBS 8 San Diego, thanks for sharing the old video. The manager in the story (Gene Medhurst) was my grandfather. I have many fond memories growing up and going to see movies at "grandpa's drive-in" as he managed not only the Campus, but other long gone drive-in movie theaters in the San Diego area. During his long career in the theater business he even managed the Spreckles Theater in downtown back in the 1960's.
    4
  135. The Unknown Eater! Awww brings back memories! I am confusing this place with Albie's Beef Inn (RIP) that is now Crust Kitchen.. Same owners??

  153. Met Larry once while he was doing a piece for a bakery in El Cajon.. What struck me was how tall he was. I know the camera puts on a few pounds but does it also make you appear shorter?lol.. Larry was a good man.
    3
  154. Guess they used the footage for a no smoking story... he zoomed out from the no smoking sign to the man smoking in the office.
    3

    3
  163. That’s where I live at now and grew up as a kid. I wish I knew what house he was in or if that man is still alive today? He would be blown away by what we have now.
    3
  164. who's got short shorts?
    3
  165. I was there at the stadium in the left field seating for game 5 of the NLCS..

Guy was to happy to scream.. he just kept on cheering!lol.... :) But ohh.. those uni's..wow!!
