The post whore thread.

Thanks for the correction.
You do notice i said 78 ISH. In old guy therms that cover at least 5 years ~. You have a chance to see the B & B tour ?
Alice Cooper did the Billion Dollars Baby tour with the Florescent Leech & Eddie opening up. Trivia.... Florescent Leech & Eddie's real names are Mark Volman and Howard Kaylenalso know as THE TURTLES.
Saw T-Rex when they / he opened for Three Dog Night. It was psychedelic times indeed. Hypothetically of course.

Tell me about memory. I'd seen BOC a year or two before as I recall. I did not see the B&B tour. I shipped out for basic in Jan 1980. Except for a few concerts in DE, Rush who I'd seen a few times before, at a small venue being my favorite memory, that was the end of my frequent concert days for about 10 years.

Saw some cool bands at Milwaukee Summerfest too, most notably Steve Miller Band while we were home on leave in the summer of 1982.

There were some good tracks on Heaven and Hell, I've always liked RJDio. For being 4' 11'', that dude could belt out some lyrics. Big fan of Holy Diver and Last in Line.

My concert experiences were a couple of years behind you guys, but not by too much. One of my earlier concerts was the Rolling Stones up at C.U. when I was about 13, at the time they touted it as the "final tour"...ha. Thorogood and Heart and a few others were there. That would have been in '79 ish I think. Most of my concert days were through the 80's.

AC/DC
Judas Priest
Kiss
Dio
Def Leppard
Motley Crue
Yngwie Malmsteen
Ratt
..and my brain is forgetting some others...

Sunday number 1 or Monsters of Rock at the old Mile High stadium...Van Halen and Scorpions and Metallica and some others were there. Metallica blew everyone away, it was bad ass. Might have been '88 or so. Two years ago I saw the Crue at Fiddlers and Scorpions at the Rocks....I'm too old for weeknight concerts anymore, dammit.

Probably gonna see the Doobie Brothers here in a month or two, they're in for a Gala that I've been attending for the last four or so years. Some of the previous bands have sucked there, and I missed the Garth Brooks one, and I heard it was a really good performance by him.

Went to see Rush they were promoting their new release, 2112. They were the opening band for STYX ! It was another great concert.
One of the worst was the Allman brothers. Duane was more fucked up than i was. Which was bad considering people didn't pay to see me perform.

[KS63]

I love Rush! Neil Peart is the Shit!!! Write their own lyrics, music and play multiple instruments. This is true musical talent. Not the garbage that's pumped out today. So few these days are actual "artists".

BTW- History channel has a show about Snipers.
