Allman Brothers with opening act Muddy Waters at the Cincinnati Riverfront Coliseum. It was the first event for Riverfront Coliseum, 1975. I was 16 years old.

Interesting. Tangent to this, last weekend I saw Gov’t Mule with former Allman Brothers guitarist Warren Haynes leading the way.

Warren Haynes was the one of the last guitarist for the Allman Brothers along with Derek Trucks. They weren't even born when I was saw them.

My first concert was Loverboy, The Hooters opened for them ("...and we danced, like a wave on the water, we danced..."), and it was at the Cincinnati Gardens.  I got mono after that concert, but I still remember the girl sitting in the row in front of me fondly.

I'm sure Warren Haynes would love knowing this ?

I saw Vanilla Ice or a passable lookalike at the Levee in 04-05ish. Local rappers opened if I remember correctly. 

1st Concert: Blue Oyster Cult and Foghat in 1980 (I Think)... I was in the sixth grade.....
