Can be very entertaining - in a King Crimson kinda’ way - I am subscribed to that channel - Robert and his wife get into some mischief in a funny sort of way and also subscribed to the King Crimson channel where just about all the albums / songs are uploaded 16 minutes ago, MicroMara said: The lowest center of gravity had the VW Karman Giha Models.

richieb Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 I still like to brag that my first concert was Jimi Hendrix at KC Municipal Auditorium. I was 15, dad drove me and a couple friends to the show. Five bucks. Held off buying tickets to what was to have been my first concert - Quicksilver Messenger Service. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigStewMan Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 My first concert was YESS. Jon Anderson, Rick Wakeman, Steve Howe, Chris Squire, and Alan White were the line up. Show was in Long Beach, CA. The show was "in the Round" they used a circular spinning stage. YEARS later I asked Rick Wakeman if that moving stage was hard to use (he plays with his eyes closed) -- he said no it wasn't; but he liked the stage that they used for their UNION tour better ... because it was bigger. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been a Coop fan since I was probably 12 or 13. In my freshman year of high school, in my graphic arts class, I made a silk screen of the billion dollar babies album cover. By any chance, are you familiar with the alternative band called The Lucksmiths? I believe they are Australian. I loved their stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave1291 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 First group? Allllllllll Motown! Lesley Gore, Brenda Lee, Bobby Vee, Jay & the Americans locally at the county fair. Don't ask me who was first I'm thinking it was Brenda Lee since I have a signed 45 by her. Then toss in The original James Gang then add Joe to their mix. Heck I dunno anymore. Now I wonder where that 45 is... Here somewhere I guess. Dunno. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I LOVE that short guitar riff at the beginning of This Magic Moment by Jay and the Americans. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
