First concert was actually a freebie for our high school next door at the Music Hall (James Montgomery and Duke and the Drivers) I believe that was in 72. First show I paid to see was Grand Funk Railroad at Boston Garden around the same time.

Best indoor concert would probably be Springsteen at the old Garden think it was 81 or 82

Best outdoor show was a weekend camping festival called Gathering of the Vibes (ended up going to and working 14 of these)

My favorite line-up was an Allman Bros family get together type of event back in 2003 (Note Allman Brothers and Dickie Betts played on different nights, no sit in)

July 10 – July 13 @ Indian Lookout Country Club, Mariaville, New York
GOTV with the Allman Brothers Band and James Brown
