I've been going to concerts since 1968....and yeah, many are fuzzy, faded, blurred....stoned out memories, whereas others are quite vivid....
'68 Duke Ellington, Count Basie and others...Newport (RI) Jazz Fest. w/ parents....I can 'see' the stage in my mind...was bored silly at the time though. Too bad, however I'm glad I do have a vision of it at least...
'69 Led Zeppelin, Johnny Winter, BB King, Herbie Hancock....same festival...better memories...I even posted about it on a major Zep site...
'71....3 Dog Night, Chicago, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, 10 Years After....good memories...and I recorded Zep and Sabbath !!
'72....James Gang, Canned Heat, Steve Still's Manassas....several others....
1973-2006....about 500 or so more !!! Some I don't remember at all !!! Just the shit bands though....
