First: Victor Borge 1968. I think.
Best: Seals and Crofts 1977. I was a junior at USC and they built a small stage on the football practice field. There were maybe 300 students there, and we sat on blankets on the ground. It was one of those early summer days when the temperature and humidity are perfect. Looking back, there were so many kids smoking pot that I probably got high just from being there, but I like to think the peaceful memory of that day was due to the weather, good music, and being with my friends.
The other best concert - sorry, it was a tie- on my dream vacation in the UK in 1996, I was in Canterbury and saw a sign for the Silver Sixties tour playing there a couple of days later. I changed my schedule around so I could go back and I got to see Peter Noone, Gerry Marsden (my all-time fave) and a bunch of other British groups from the sixties. |
