must have been good. Anything there is good.
Saw Charlie Daniels there, before Devil went down to Georgia fame. A way overplayed tune IMO and not even close to his best talent. They were fantastic.

Grateful Dead - 1993 Spectrum in Philly

Rolling Stones - 1995 in Foxborough

Bob Dylan - Think it was 2000 in Hartford

The good old days of going to many concerts. I think it has been about 5 years since I have been to a concert. I miss it!

I got to see Springsteen at the Palladium in NYC in 76 or 77. Also saw him at the Stanley in Pittsburgh I believe in 78. All of them were incredible shows and closest thing I have ever seen to something like a revival meeting as the entire crowd was going out of control. I saw Joan Armatrading at the Beacon once around the walk on ladders album and it was incredible from the lights to a super hot band I was floored. I do not know whether I had low expectations going in but she was tops and played great lead guitar on both acoustic and electric.
First time I saw Richard Thompson play electric at the bottom line was great. Allmans are always top even this years run at the Beacon was amazing. They are so good you kind of expect a level of greatness and rarely do they disappoint. The current band may be better than the original line up.
