I guess that's why Herb Albert scooped her up while he had the chance.

foggy which one was first

all around 77 or 78:

Genesis, Yes, Blue Oyster Cult & Cheap Trick together at Cape Cod Coliseum (awful)

Yes was great both times

then Grateful Dead in maybe January 1979 which was the only time I saw them

Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels, Poughkeepsie High School Auditorium, 1967. For a while, I retained a shard of the chair he smashed.

Ryder, years later, recorded a pretty cool version of Prince's "When You Were Mine," with his ballsy baritone an interesting contrast to Prince's falsetto version.
