March 4, 201016 yr Otis Redding, Muddy Waters and early Johnny Cash are also close up there behind my man Sam.
March 4, 201016 yr Probably one of these: The Who for the Live at Leeds show Otis Redding Live at the Hollywood Bowl That festival in England they always show in the archival footage for Lynyrd Skynyrd. The show also featured The Rolling Stones and several others (Todd Rundgren, 10cc, Hot Tuna). Bogart's in I believe it was early 1999 when the Afghan Whigs did a welcome-home show after a long layoff while sassy lead singer Greg Dulli was recovering from having his head split open during a tiff with an Austin bouncer in the fall. They led off with "The Boys Are Back In Town," and proceeded to rock my world for three hours or so. So, yeah. One of these four. And MJ, while I'm soaking it up in Rock'n'Roll Heaven, I'll be praying for poor souls like you in musical Hell.

I had to leave after like 5 songs because one of the idiots I drove there had too many adult beverages, tossed his cookies, and got us thrown out!
March 4, 201016 yr This... Specifically beginning at the 5:50 mark. I've had this conversation with buddies many times and this has always been my answer. I also must add that I certainly would not be in the sober state of mind that I am currently in. I think Jim Schue will share some of my feelings about this performance.

March 4, 201016 yr The Beatles The Gardens in Cincinnati, August 1964 (or any of their U.S. tour sites).
March 4, 201016 yr The Beatles The Gardens in Cincinnati, August 1964 (or any of their U.S. tour sites). Wasn't that their shortest U.S. concert though? Everybody was screaming ridiculously loud and they cut their set short because they couldn't even hear themselves singing.
March 4, 201016 yr February 1st , 1896 Teatro Regio Turin Italy . the world premier of Giacomo Puccini 's La Boheme conducted by a young Arturo Toscanini . Fast forward 100 years to January 25 1996 . The Off-Broadway opening of "Rent" the night after its creator Jonathon Larson passed away . Same story ,very different treatment, both great works of art ! Edited March 4, 201016 yr by KyTmcNcc

I don't know. I was 10 at the time and only read about it. I was just trying to pick the one closest to where I live in Eastern Kentucky. I remember my cousin, who lives in Cincinnati, said she went to it and the crowd was wild. I think some people were injured, maybe broken bones, either at the concert or at the airport, when a large group gathered to welcome the plane.
