My first concert was Arlo Guthrie at the Shaffer (sic) Music Festival in Central Park, NYC. It cost 2 bucks and it was for his "Running Down the Road" album.
And because I've been pm'd about the above, and just to carify ... that skinny, long-haired teenage kid in Child/Steel Mill was the yet to be recorded Mr. Springsteen. Real nice guy.
The Doors at Madison Square Garden on a Fridy night, January 24, 1969. The concert was sold out. They opened with Touch Me with the Garden in total darkness except for the strobing of listeners flashes while taking pictures.
Perhaps, needless to say, it was an excellent show.
Joe, I wouldn't say "needless to say"--when I saw the Doors the band was great but Morrison was not very good. He spent a lot of time under (yes, under) the stage babbling into the mic while the other guys cooked away.
