Live in concert!
What bands have you seen perform?
I was listening to my XM yesterday and 4 or 5 songs in a row, I thought to myself..."I've seen them" (as best as I can remember, I'm sure I'll think of a few more) in no particular order... Asleep at the Wheel Allman Brothers Alvin Lee Black Oak Arkansas David Bromberg Steve Goodman Humble Pie Johnny & Edgar Winter Eric Clapton Jack Bruce Band Ginger Baker (very weird business/lunch sorta meeting) Steppenwolf The Who Genesis Gentle Giant Rolling Stones Bruce Springstein (3$ cover charge when he was playing bars in NJ before he went bigtime) ahhhh, my misspent youth

Moody Blues
Jefferson Starship Sly and the Family Stone Jimi Hendrix Crosby Stills & Nash Golden Earring Night Ranger Young Rascals Led Zepplin Roger Waters Neil Young Sha-Na-Na James Gang Oh this is hopeless! I keep coming up with, "That Rock Fest in '71 there was....ahh....???" Most memories involving music seem to be a bit hazy.

 Believe it or not I've actually been to a concert! Can't remember who it was as I was drug there by the parents and the rest of the time I was counting the minutes until it was over so I could leave.

Aerosmith Guns & roses Pink Floyd Seals & Crofts Ted Nugent Robert Cray Stones Los Lonely Boys Ozzy Gathering Field Tom Petty Hall & Oates Bob Seiger & Live Bullet Band Toto Foghat Sat in with Bruce Springstein at one of those 3 dollar cover charges back in the early 70's at The Stoned Pony. Was playing drums with a band back then, Bruce came on while we were playing and joined in for a few songs. I'm sure I forgot quite a few.

Man I got you all beat.
I saw the King, Elvis, when I was a kid. 50 bucks for a nose bleed seat back in the early 70's. It was the one and only time he played in Dallas texas and I was there. Let's see what I can remember: Cat Stevens Yes Aerosmith Samy Hagar Journey K.C. and the sunshine band Chicago ( just this year  )Stevie Ray Vaughn ( free concert thanks to the Navy )AC/DC There are several others that I've seen but just don't remember them all. Some of them were country singers I saw at Billy Bob's in Fort Worth but since I'm not into Country, I don't remember who they were. Also did one of the big summer jams at the Orange Bowl when I was staioned in Florida and there were a lot of big named bands there as well, just don't remember them all. That's where I saw Aerosmith who were starting a comeback. The main headliner was Journey. I dropped in on a small club in San fransisco once and saw Boz Scaggs playing. The Stevie Ray concert was during Fleet Week in San Fransisco back in '85. I was up there in school and a buddy and I had went down town for the night. Met up with some other sailors off of one of the ships that had pulled in. He told us there was a free concert down on the pier, just show our military ID and we were in. Went down, got some free beer, walked up to the stage and looked up. There was Stevie Ray, standing right in front of me, jamming away. Dosen't get any better than that. When I was a kid, we used to go to Six Flags over Texas amusment park during the summer and they had concerst there on the weekends so I saw a lot of bands there as well. When Mrs. Chevy and I went to see chicago earlier this year, I was talking to one of the guys I work with about it. Found out that he grew up with the guy who now plays Bass for them. Said the guy got a break right out of high school because his mom knew a few people and set him up with a audition. They were best friends and hug out together a lot back then. Got a guy in my American legion post who played with one of the heavy metal bands back in the day. I think it was Iron Maiden or Iron Butterfly. I don't remember. Here's one for you. I was sitting at LAX waiting on a flight back east for bussiness. I was eating lunch in one of the littel food places. A group of guys came up and asked if they could join me as there were no otehr seats around. I said sure as I didn't mind. Got to talking to them and come to find out, it was Thin Lizzy. They were out on tour again. Kind of funny in that they were more interested in what I did for a living than trying to play up all big and bad rock group. Just a bunch of normal guys in my book which I thought was cool.
