    Just for fun - What are some groups from the 60's - 70's you've seen. (I know, It's been done before - but there are new heads on board). For me:
    Allman Bros. (@Filmore East)
    Johnny Winter
    Hendrix - twice (2nd Atlanta Pop & Univ. of Ala.)
    Stones (Univ. of Ala)
    Leslie West & Mountain
    Country Joe & the Fish
    Dylan
    Cheech & Chong

    Plus some - but I can't remember 'em!! Advantages and disadvantages of drugs.:(

    Lettermen (for my wife)

    Weird Al. (Hey, he started in '79, it works)



    Actually, I might go to a super cheap blues festival this summer, and Eric Burdon and the Animals are what are making me think of getting some money together.

    Actually saw the Everly Brothers in the late 80's and they put on one of the best live shows I've ever been to. Hate to admit this but I also was dragged to a milli vanilli concert and they were great live too. how does it go? It must be memorex?

    I didn't get around much, but apparently the Dead did. I saw them once when traveling thru St. Louis. An old HS friend of mine insisted we go to where they were playing in Illinois, outside of some college campus. It was in a tent. IDK what year it was - early '70s sometime.

    Oh, I was at the Atlanta Pop Festival, July 4th weekend 1970 - so guess I coulda seen or at least heard whoever was playing there over the the 3-days we camped out. (I was one of the quarter million who didn't buy tickets so didn't get into the stage compound.) :p

    Country Joe and the Fish - during high school - got into a college campus concert with a borrowed ID card
    Yes
    The Tubes
    Fleetwood Mac
    Bob Dylan - Illinois state fair a few years ago
    Paul Stookey - just saw him solo in Cambridge, MA last year.
    Simon & Garfunkel - reunion tour in Chicago

    I thought there must be more - I guess I don't get out much. Looks like rollingalong does nothing but go to concerts...

    Sunfighter - I had forgotten all about Mahavishnu Orchestra - I used to have an album of theirs.
