'they blew'em off the stage'

Philo,

I'm glad that you have fond memories of the show. I remember 3 unpleasant things (in addition to the flying bottles!) abou that concert:

1 - The band seemed pissed off from the start - I assumed they didn't like the glass assault on Toots.

2 - Kenny Jones had just replaced Keith and IMHO he didn't pull it off.

3 - It seemed like 1/2 the music was taped accompaniement.

Different strokes and all, but I've seen the band once before that show and 3 times since then and much preffered the other concerts. But, again, that is only MHO.

Marty,

My mistake, when I saw them Keith Moon played the drums. You must have seen them later as Keith Moon died in 1978

sorry..

Aug, 1970 saw the orginal Allman Brothers Band open for Canned Heat. The crowd literally wouldn't let the Allman Brothers leave the stage and they ended up doing three encores. By the time Canned Heat hit the stage, they did about 3 or 4 songs before calling it quits. Of course, by that time about half the audiences had already left.

Philo,

Probably my mistake - I'd guess that the years have fused the memories of 2 different shows into 1. Definitely not a good sign.

Funny part is, every time I see The Who (about once a decade) I like the show more than the previous one. A few years back they played the Hollywood Bowl and tore it up,

If the Pontiac show you saw was on a freezing cold day, I'd say I'm the guilty party here.
