Willie G. Moseley Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 A "Big Bam" show, 1966. State coliseum in Montgomery, AL. Caravan show sponsored by WBAM Radio that included Herman's Hermits, the Animals, the Buckinghams, Sandy Posey, Jerry Lee Lewis, etc. IIRC (I went to two of those, which were held twice a year for several years, and over 50 years later I get the lineups mixed up).The Blues Magoos were at the other one that I attended, I think. Latest: Styx @ the Oxford Performing Arts Center, last October Next (as of now): Styx, REO Speedwagon, and Don Felder in Greenville SC early April.

KofSeattle Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 1st Iron Maiden / Scorpions / Girls school LATEST Cheap Trick NEXT No more live shows for me unfortunately due to my health. I have been begging the wife to have my all time favorite guitar player come to the house for an acoustic jam but she thinks food is more important. Silly girl.

currypowder Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Elvin Bishop Chuck Prophet - if you get the chance to see him, do yourself a favor and go. Alice Cooper, maybe. It's the only show scheduled locally that holds any interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobB Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Yeah, ChuckP and the Mission Express are great. They’ve gone in a decidedly jangly direction in the last decade or so, kinda Petty-ish. They opened for Ian Hunter in SF recently, awesome show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottcald Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Cheap Trick/UFO/some band I don't remember Arcade Fire because I was visiting my friend in Memphis (he's involved with Sun Studio Sessions on PBS). The band had come through and handed out some tix after they took the tour. Not sure, it's the ol' time demon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Thor's Hamer Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 1st: The Osmond Brothers at Madison Square Garden in New York City. 1972. My older sister was a huge fan of Donny Osmond, so my parents took all of us to the concert. Last: Peter Frampton with The Steve Miller Band. Killer show, if you like guitars. Next: ? No idea yet.

The Shark Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 1st: Kiss in Lakeland in December 1976. The song "Shock Me" was born. Act got shocked coming down the railing of the staircase and Detroit Rock City stopped abruptly. The band started the setlist with the same song about ten minutes later. Ace had a bandage on his head. Uriah Heep opened up. Ken Hensley was fantastic. Last: Kansas at the Peabody Auditorium in Daytona Beach in 2017. The last concert my friend Phil ever attended. He had to leave early. Passed just a few days later. I've only seen a few concerts and played a few gigs in my life without Phil there. Next: Eric Johnson on February 23rd at the Plaza Theatre in Orlando. I used to see movies there in the 1970's. Killer sound in that room. He's playing the album A Via Musicom in it's entirety. The aforementioned Kansas played Leftoverture all the way through in Daytona last year! I've seen Eric three times. I think this will be the best show yet!

kizanski Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 1st: Queen w/Thin Lizzy (with Gary Moore on guitar) - Madison Square Garden - 2/5/77. I was 10 years old. My dad took me. Last: Tab Benoit w/Sonny Landreth - Mid City Lanes "Rock & Bowl" New Orleans - April, 2009. Saw the above masters and met Kathleen Sebelius, then Governor of Kansas (A huge Tab Benoit fan). This capped off one of the best weeks of my life, hanging with @MCChris, @Jeff R and @thecajunboy. ...oh... and The Victim was born. Next?: I can't think of anyone I would leave the house to see anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommy p Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 First (rock): Pat Benatar, 1979 Last: AC/DC, 2016 (Next to last show for the Rock or Bust tour. That was my memory but I had to look it up. I can't believe I didn't go to a single concert in 2017.) Next: no clue Edited to add: just found out a few shows are coming that I am at least mildly interested in: Anthrax, who I've never seen and would like to, but they're with Killswitch Engage and I know nothing about them. May give them a listen and see if I can tolerate it. Exodus, who I have never listened to and only know because everybody says they one of the next top thrash bands to the Big 4. The Darkness - I saw them after their first or second album at the 9:30 Club in DC and thought they were great, but I'm not sure I want to drive 2 hours each way to the venue they're playing this time to see them again.

Jeff R Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 First: Kiss, Dynasty tour, 1979, my Dad the trooper took me and a few friends. Last: Slash solo tour w/Myles Kennedy on vocals, HOB NOLA, 2015. The bill was "Slash and The Conspirators featuring Myles Kennedy" or something like that but Von and I went to see MK and his backing band that happened to feature a notable guitarist. We were front row, Myles delivered the goods as expected, and Slash's stacks were apparently not stage dummies because not only did my ears ring for two straight days, my chest ached and my feet were numb from standing in one place for hours on end to hold our front row position. I'm getting too old for that shit. Next: No clue here either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
