I loved this reminiscence of your trip to see "Wings". I was lucky enough to see The Beatles, not that I'm trying to make you jealous or anything . If it makes you feel any better, I had to go because my mother and (much older) sisters could not find a baby-sitter; I was only 3 years old at the time.
Suggestions:
"{b]I have all the American released albums of the Beatles. I have a lot of their individual albums too. I have (implied)never parted with ..." too many, "I haves...", in quick succession.
"There is a song to cure each mood I have." I would scrap the "I have" if I were you; It is not necessary.
" I also, in the 1980s, invested in an expensive German turntable, Bang-Olfson brand." "In the 1980s I invested in an expensive, Bang-Olfson turntable."
"...even when I would do aerobics.." I would omit the "...would do..." here, and just use did.
"..,body power, ... I am sure you had plenty of this, but maybe you mean, "body poder...".
"It didn't show up immediately, so I finished the bottle of champagne before the cab arrived." I think you need to trim a little here, how about, While I waited for it to arrive, I finished the bottle of champagne.
"I paused to buy a t shirt from a vendor on my way to mine." this is the beginning of a new paragraph, therefore you must not use the pronoun, you need to say, my seat or do not have a paragraph break; which would probably be better.
"...which PETA so infamously does. ..." do you really mean this? I think you want, famously does; I might be biased.
"It was the other side of the freeway, but not the freeway I needed. " this is a strange paragraph break, again. I would leave this as prt of the previous paragraph if I was you. The paragraph break should go before this, "By now, an hour after ..."
"...I neglected to call a cab before I exited the hallways inside the huge complex." this seems unwieldy, try, ...I hadn't called a cab before I left the foyer..."
Bits I Really Liked:
"After about an hour of driving the route I'd traced in yellow pencil on the map,..." I love this phrase. It is details like this that makes the whole item so charming.
" "Let It Be" was indeed a spiritual experience. McCartney encouraged the audience to sing the "la la" part in sections: right, left, middle, girls, and men each filled the tremendous stadium with the simple,familiar tune..." a wonderful piece of expression; I felt it with you.
I absolutely loved this paragraph, it is so true, "The tee shirt didn't hold up as well as the memories of the night. I...until the printing was so faded that you couldn't read what it ever was, but I knew."
I hope this review is of some use to you,.
