Boys and girls,this is how music was done back before the world of auto-tune,lip-syncing,and backup dancers to distract people from noticing how much the "star" sucks. Geezers like me remember (mostly vaguely) performances like this 40 + years ago being what people expected to see when they bought a concert ticket. I know this will be a revelation to those of you under 40,but it's the truth.

Maybe. They had plenty of groups with lots of props and costume changes back then. The group Boston toured with that huge UFO thingy. Some acts, especially the female pop stars would tour with 20 dancers of more and had a dozen or more quick-change costume changes on stage that took only a few seconds.
I think you are being a little selective in remembering those "good ol' days". There were plenty of dancers and costumes and stage props in concerts and on TV back then, just like now.
A lot of groups operated at about the level of Spinal Tap.

None that I paid any attention to. Not that costumes or trendy clothing had anything to do with the music. Bob Seeger did have a couple of chicks dancing in the background,but they were playing saxophones.
