What a fun thread! What great memories; I must share a few: First concert it '66 was a Grateful Dead Concert at Fillmore West in SF; Only about 300 people dancing around and walked right up to the front of the stage!
Every weekend after that for a few years. Family Dog/Avalon Ballroom, WINTERLAND!! Saw Janice at the Carousel ballroom.
Saw Traffic and Cream, Ginger Baker was astounding then Blind Faith. The Airplane, Quicksilver Albert King, The Chambers Brothers at Stanford Amphitheatre, Albert King in lots of places on the peninsula Sty, Ike and Tina. Wow too many to list, this was back when you could get to the front of the stage without getting crushed.
But the Dead! and there is nothing like a Grateful Dead Concert!
