In the early'80s I was still in school. Trapped in a VERY small town up here in the Pacific Northwest. By the late '80s I was training for a career in the music industry singin in a band but, was detoured by drugs and alcohol. The '80s are a fog for me. Have been clean for almost 13 years now and am back in the industry although in a different part of it, thanks to my wonderful husband.

My husband on the other hand was playing in the band Roadmaster in the '80s and then went on to be a Promoter and
Tour Manager for many. He's been around the world a few times.

We are both still in the music industry now providing Itineraries and Passes, marketing and Promotion for Rock Bands. So GLAD the '80s are behind me now, but sad that I missed so much history in the music industry.

I was born in 81'

84' We adopted a couple of puppies Bear and Sandy.
85' I became a big sister, my brother was born in November.
86' I went to kindergarden and one of my aunt's graduated
from 86' and on I got a kitten named Patches she was a calico,we went on a few family vacations,I lived with my grandma most of the time because my parents worked nights. And well I liked to live with my grandma more. I think after the 80's my parent's made me come back home though.

That is pretty much of what I remember of the 80's oh I remember more but I don't remember what year and such.
