Hawk 2010 Sep 2

on Pink Floyd, 1973 Mar 11

First time a quad system had ever been put in the gardens...(Toronto Maple Leaf Gardens). The looks of peoples' faces after the show was one of ...what the hell did we just witness! David Gilmour said he wished he could have experienced that. To just walk in and sit down and experience Dark Side for the first time, all put together.

Was Rush the stand in band?

on Rush, 1974 Nov 1

Was this the concert that was supposed to be The Sensational Alex Harvey Band and they couldn't make it for some reason? In stead Rush came out, fresh with their 1st album. If that's the same one, the first song was 'finding my way'. Rush blew the place apart!! unreal.

What a concert

on Led Zeppelin, 1973 Mar 14

I remember it well. The crowd was pretty big, but not overwhelming. The whole crowd got excited and did not want to wait any longer to get in and trampled the fence. The police sprayed tear gas to try to stop people but it did not do anything but cause the crowd to push harder. The seating was floor only. I sat very close to the stage and love the concert. People were so stoned that there were very few people standing. Everyone sitting on their blankets smoking hashish and drinking Matuse wine. It was very mellow but Zepplin Rock and did a great encore. Long time ago but wow.

I was there

on The Who, 1970 Jun 14

I'm pretty sure I attended this concert where Leon Russel was the opening act. We sat where first base would be. Great spot. I had never heard of Leon but for me he really stole the show.
