My favorite performance ever was probably seeing Kenny Rankin at Birdland.

I can't even begin to count how many concerts I've been to since the early 70's. My first was in the early 60's...The Beatles.

I'm going to say the Hollywood Bowl is a great concert venue. The sound is awesome.

So nobody here ever saw Ted Nugent in the 70s? You missed a great show then.

What everyone should do is post the concert, the venue, and approximate date. See if anyone on ACF happened to be at the same show.

I saw Chapin at the little theater on the campus of William Patterson College in NJ. About a 300 seat venue.
