Things have changed a whole lot over the past decades. With every year and every decade that goes by, things evolve and alter in all kinds of ways. Absolutely everything, from trends to technology to fashion to music changes as the years pass. The overall vibes and tone are different now, too. While the 1980s were not all that long ago, relatively, the world looked a lot different back then. One thing that hasn't changed much is concert culture, though. People still enjoy going to concerts all year long.

Concerts always have been and always will be a fun night out for people of all ages. While people still enjoy going to concerts, indoors and outdoors, festivals and tours, the appearance of these performances has changed. The fashion has changed, the way people travel has changed, the shows look different, and, of course, the bands are different now, too.

Every concert-goer in the modern era has some jealousy for the people who got to see classic concerts of the past. This is for good reason, too. Concerts looked pretty amazing back then. So, here are 25 images of shows and show scenes from the 1980s to reminisce on.
