Steven J. Petran rying to bring a dif f erent type of music to Miami, Concert Board presented the Temptations for the Homecoming concert. The group reeled off its hit songs of the 605 including iiMy Girlii and iiPapa Was A Rolling Stone? As with other concerts, however, the show was poorly attended with just over 3,000 fans watching the Temptations in action, barely more than the other first semester concert, the Tubes. Only Bob Hope, here for Parentsi Weekend, sold many tickets when he per- formed in front to a packed house of students and their parents. The Temptations, and its opening act, 19503 star Bo Diddley, presented music that had long been forgotten by contem- porary music fans. Nostalgic sounds emanated from Millett Hall when the group took the stage, playing songs that had become popular again due in part to the success of The Big Chill, a movie which reintroduced America to the music of the 19603.
