I saw them at the USC (South Carolina) coliseum during the same time period.
Probably the same tour.
The drummer sticks where flying like 20 feet above his (Corky Laing?) head.
He had a rack of new sticks set up right next to his drum set. One would fly up in the air, then he would just grab a new one and keep playing.
Dude, Thanks for posting. I have been remembering those drum sticks for the past 50 years. I sometimes wondered, did I imagine those flying sticks? With confirmation, I am assured. Those drum sticks were flying.
