I saw them in concert in the summer of ‘86. They were playing Roy Wilkins Auditorium in downtown St Paul. The Outfield opened for them.
A interesting crowd - lots of screaming teenage girls there to see the Outfield and a bunch of former 60’s people smoking pot and waiting for Grace Slick to sing “White Rabbit”. Throw in people like me and my friends (early 20-somethings) and it was a fun evening.
he had the outfield song posted i think yesterday.
I went to see them that year too. Outfield was supposed to open, but they didn’t show for some unknown reason. I didn’t like this song very much. I liked Airplane better. Jefferson Starship had a song called Miracles which was a nice easy song I liked.
I saw them (whatever they were calling themselves at the time) on the Winds of Change tour (1984?) in New Haven (or maybe Hartford) with 38 Special opening.
Most of the crowd was there to see 38 Special, so by the time Starship was on stage, the arena was half full, although they were definitely seeing the half empty. They went through the motions, and when the crowd wasn’t into it as much as they thought they should be, they started cursing at the crowd and saying stupid stuff about all being on the same side.
