I can remember seeing Led Zeppelin at the Kiel in St. Louis. Blue Oyster Cult at the Danville Civic center with special guest Dokken with George Lynch. We went and caught Rush and the roadie missed the hand off on Closer to the Heart so Alex Lifeson played the whole song on the Mandolin. Black Sabbath with Dio at the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago with April wine, 38 special with 2 drummers and the Hounds. That was a bizzare lineup, but Sabbath with Dio was exceptionally good. One of my favorite concerts was Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow with Ronnie James Dio. Frank Marino and Mahoghany Rush at the Arcada. Another good one was Lynch Mob and Steelheart at Mabels in Champaign. Most of these bands except Led Zeppelin we had the good fortune of seeing multiple times including Black Sabbath's last American tour with Ozzy. Judas Priest at least 3 times. I still listen to this music all the time on Ozzy's Boneyard. Long hair is out of the question as I don't have much left! If it's too loud you are too F'n old! So if the House is a rocking don't bother knocking and just come on in Mr. Hank Reardon!
