I still have all my concert ticket stubs from the early 1970s. We would see our shows at the now gone Spectrum in Philly. I saw Dave Mason,Chambers Brothers and Roy Buchanan for 6 bucks. Also Bad Co.,Bedlam and Uriah Heep for 6 bucks too. Those were the days.

Of my many musical regrets, not catching Roy Buchanan live is a pretty big one. I only recall going to the Spectrum once. It was 1974 and my cousin and I went to see the Grateful Dead. They were the only act and the show started at 9 PM. We got there right at 9 and left around 1:45 AM and they were still playing. Not really my sort of Dead which was the “Live Dead” double record era from 1968 which is where I first saw them in San Diego. I never remember the cost of tickets being much more than a six pack of decent beer.
