There�s a place on Detroit�s west side called the Motor City Skating Center. Pat Benatar played there in December of 1979. She�d just released her first album, and maybe 300 people cared enough about it to show up. Six years later, on a wintry night at Detroit�s Joe Louis Arena—seating 20,000—no roller skates were in sight.
