Your First Concert was.....

The Turtles, June 1969, at the Surf, Nantasket Beach [Mass]. Unfortunately, they would shortly break up [screwed by their record company and managers].

Later Mark Volman and Howard Kaylan [Flo & Eddie] played with the late & great Frank Zappa & the Mothers.

I also saw them again as Flo & Eddie, the opening act for Alice Cooper's "Billion Dollar Baby Tour" at Pirate's World in Miami, in April 1973. What great performers, impressionists, and satirists...they had the crowd in laughing hysterically with their ad-lib in "Nikki Hoy"

Both venues are long since gone!

Fleetwood Mac opening for the Eagles, 1976. I was 14. I may never have loved anyone so desperately as I loved Stevie Nicks in those days. Sigh.... And what was that funny smell that wafted up in little mushroom clouds all around the coliseum when the lights went down?

The Animals
1966

First concert for me was The Young Rascals at Fairleigh Dickinson in NJ, 1966. Second concert was at the Fillmore East with The Kinks, Spirit and the Bonzo Dog Band.

Flo and Eddie! Great fun! Wish I could have caught their act.

The Animals in '66?. I'm green.

Rush, 1982 Signals Tour at the Long Beach Areana. I was in 7th grade and my Dad took me and my best friend. Will slways be my favorite concert.
