What “very special episode” stuck with you after all these years?

When I was 12, growing up in the PNW, I sat my dad down at the kitchen table, played Gates of Steel on my tape recorder and told him that if I didn't get an electric guitar, I would die. He did not share my sense of urgency. Instead, I did yardwork for my grandparents all summer and saved up seventy dollars to buy an old Harmony semi-hollow. A year later, I was working for the store that sold me the guitar, doing sales and repairs. In HS, I was the kid with the key to the music store, which had a stage. In my late 20's, I moved to Los Angeles to make records, have engineered both live and in the studio, played in bands, and I design audio gear for the pro audio industry, working with some of the best producers in the world. When my wife and I saw Devo live in October 2023, they tore the building down. Everybody in the arena was on their feet the whole time. It was very emotional when they played Gates of Steel.
