Both at McNichols Arena, Denver
1979 Earth, Wind and Fire. Great horn section.
86 or so...Opening act I cant remember, then Southern Pacific, then Ricky Skaggs...midway through his set we realized there were unattended seats about 5 rows back, center stage, so, we sat there. George Strait closed out. Yea, women threw their underwear,

Crap, forgot about King Crimson at Grady Gammage auditorium at ASU. Was also pretty cool seeing John Cougar whatever his name was get hit in the head with a Jack Daniels bottle at Sun Devil Stadium.

Staler Brothers Ronnie Milsap and....Tammy Wynet. Half way through her set she stopped and called me up to help her off the stage. At the bottom of the stairs she spun me around and gave me a big french kiss. My wife is still upset. Tells me I didn't have to "kiss her back" to which I respond "that wasn't her back". I must love the dog house, I spend a lot of time there. Tammy was a lot better looking in person than on TV.

Yes! I'm real close to being 70
I could add a lot more.
They would have a lot of top bands play at the Santa Rosa Fairgrounds
We would also go down to the Fillmore in San Francisco
to see a lot of the top rock bands in my high school years

Clint Black was only ok, Ronnie Milsap was pretty good. TG Sheppard was awesome. His band had nothing but good things to say about him. I gave him a tour of TOPGUN. His wife, at the time, had the biggest man made boobs I have ever seen.
Roy Clark...good concert, great person to talk with.
Joe Diffie has a very pure voice.
I was front row for Billy Dean; he opened up for Tanya Tucker. He and his band had just split, so he did everything by himself. Great voice. He and Tanya Tucker did a couple duets that were pretty good. She was still youthful looking, and darn cute back then.
True story time....a few years later I got a call from a buddy of mine. His aunt was wondering if I could give her a tour of TOPGUN. I said ok...and 'when will she be here?' 'Well, she is at the front gate'. He was a great guy, so I put a few things aside and gave her a tour and got her a couple shirts/caps. We started talking about Navy stuff over lunch and she mentioned that her nephew had said I had a 'different' sense of humor and that I had a crush on Tanya Tucker. One thing led to another and I ended up telling her that Tanya Tucker was in my will.
She was curious, so I explained that when I die, I wanted to be cremated and have my ashes put in a 'feminine hygiene applicator' and given to Tanya because that was the only way I would ever get in there.
Soooo, as it turned out, this lady was number two at the largest record lable in Nashville, and she would be glad to get an autographed picture.
I got it alright, with the initials 'NFW' under her 'love, Tanya' signature,

LAST EDITED ON Nov-07-19 AT 02:29PM (MST)[p]I forgot one! I went to see Willie Nelson with my brother at our local college. Willie was ok but his son Lukas Nelson stole the show.
And when it was over the locals threw about 10 pounds of weed on the stage. Willie admits he comes here for the marijuana.
1911, you must have hit your head recently, or you were thinking of Kilowatt.

I haven't been to very many concerts over the years, but I have been to a couple of Stones concerts, The Who, Paul McCartney, Boz Scaggs, and Elton John. They were all great in there own way. My wife has a much better resume. She has seen the Doors, Grateful Dead, Jimi Hendrix, Sly and the Family Stone, Fleetwood Mac, Jethro Tull, and others. She has a magnetic sign on the refrigerator that says "I may be old, but I got to see all the great bands". She is still pissed at her mother
who wouldn't let her see the Beatles at the Hollywood Bowl, when her childhood friend invited her.
Oh, almost forgot. I did see Fleetwood Mac, but not in concert. All of them came into a restaurant in Malibu, Ca. called "Moonshadows", while I was a broiler cook in the mid to late '70's. I only saw them when I literally, had to step over each of them while leaving the restaurant around
midnight. They were all crawling on their hands and knees, while a limo was waiting out front. They were so messed up from drinking and doing lines on the dinner table all night long. I didn't know who they were until I turned around after I stepped over the last one. Mick Fleetwood looked up at me and just groaned.

I saw Joe Diffie, Boy Howdy and Diamond Rio for free in Kennewick Wash back in the 1994, and Joe Diffie was good. Alan Jackson in 1994 also and he was fantastic.
The Eagles in 2002 was the most inspiring performance. Santana with Buddy Miles and Montrose in 1972 was my first concert.

Merle !! Saw him many times over the years in large venues but in Sept. 2013 he came here to the little Siskiyou County fairgrounds and did a benifit show for "Fair Aid". It was one of his last shows. RIP Hag !! Second would have to be Allison Krauss and Union Station at the Britt Festival in Southern Oregon, she was awesome. I like the smaller venues.
