Okay...I'll give you that, who cared about politics in their 20's. (me)

Anyway, I have seen every Tull concert I've been able to attend. Memories mix with memories....but evey one of their shows were the best! I got backstage passes in 1999. It was a highlight of my life!

TULL! I love them. Saw them two summers ago in Las Vegas, and I can't wait to go again.

Just saw Steve Winwood - great show.

I've seen James Taylor three times (with Arnold McCuller singing background all three times) - last time was during the recall campaign here in CA. He only made a short mention of that and moved on.

Saw John Mellencamp in about 1999 - pre-Gore years. It was a great show. After some of the stuff he's come out with politically, I won't be back.

Jimmy Buffett many times. Always a good time.

Won Phil COllins tickets in 1998 - great show, and with Arnold McCuller (that voice!) as his backup, particularly in the Philip Bailey role.

And speaking of which - had a blast at Earth Wind and Fire 10 years ago. Moodies about the same time.

And one of my absolute favorites - Toby Keith four times - the first time for free at the Alameda County Fair in 96.

I love live music.

In college, Billy Joel twice, the first time for cheap in a little Hartford concert hall. Then "The STranger" came out, and it was to the megacoliseum.

Let's see, many years ago in high school, I saw the daylong concert at Roosevelt Raceway in NY: Joni Mitchell, Tom Scott and the LA Express, a cameo by Elton John with the Beach Boys, who knows who else. It was excellent.

And my first... John Denver!! :-)

Great thread.

And Tull was probably the best I've seen. What amazing musicians.

agreed... saw Tull twice back in the 70s for APP and Stormwatch tours... just a lot of fun and not any rocknroll preening ... am just now getting over the shock of the john evans-barriemore barlowe fiasco and the resignation of jeffery hammond-hammond
