Tom describes some wild experiences from his concert going youth including the time he swam up to a stage and sang with John Kay of Steppenwolf while dripping wet, sliding down the hills of Tinley Park's World Theater during a rainstorm, and getting put in the World Theater's "jail" at two different concerts. During the interview, you'll find out why Tom always tried to buy one extra ticket for any concert he attended.
