I saw the Stones on that tour and the tour when Van Halen was their opener and Halen sucked except when they did the Ice Cream Man. You never know.[/QUOTE]
Yeah! Saw them too, not anywhere near my first, part of one of the "Superbowl series of rock" concerts. Nothing to do with the Superbowl. They were a series of concerts at the T Bowl that would start at noon and go till midnight and beyond. I think we went to all of them.
One of the most underrated and forgotten rock bands. Steve Marriott was a fantastic performer. I take it Peter Frampton was gone by the time of that show. Regrettable, but still one heck of a live band.
I was at the Gusman Hall show that was part of Buffet's "You Had To Be There" live album. When I bought the album it turned out to be well named because the show was much better than the album lets on. I'm pretty sure that was before the term "Parrothead" was coined, at least I never heard it until long after I stopped listening to him.
nothin' dorky 'bout the Doobies.
Yes Peter was gone. I think he left after the live double album at the Fillmore, the concert I saw was after the bad *** "Smokin'" album. Still have both. Somewhere.
You have the time line correct according to the internet. Clem Clempson, who replaced Frampton, was no slouch. Am I the only one who really likes guitar driven rock, who does not much like Peter Frampton? I suppose I should listen to more of his stuff.
No you're not. I never bought any of his albums although he was played all the time everywhere you went for some few years.
