I saw Fleetwood Mac at an all-day concert at Mile High Stadium in Denver in 75 or 76. They were there with Santana, Girard, and the Beach Boys. Strange combination, but a great concert.

>>I still remember the first time I saw "King Crimson" live. They were the warm-up act for "Procol Harum". They couldn't have found two more different groups if they'd scoured the planet. The first set was rockin' and the second set; well, you'd have thought everyone was asleep until each number ended and the place erupted.

>The show I saw that most resembled that was Fleetwood Mac opening for the Eagles at Foxboro Stadium in about 1975, The Eagles were rock royalty at the time so were the headliners and the group most people were there to see. Fleetwood Mac, who were just starting to get huge after the release of their white album, came on first. Since their recorded songs were so tight and radio friendly, it was a revelation to people to see them cut loose on the stage. Stevie Nicks was pretty hard to take your eyes off back in her heyday. And Lindsey Buckingham, the guitarist, was the biggest scene stealer. A great guitarist trapped in a singles band. The guitar solos that were about 16 bars long on record could be stretched out to 5 minutes, with the crowd going nuts.

>It wasn't until later that they were all on drugs and practically emblematic of the excesses of rock bands of the 80s. At the time they were still on the way up, like a rocket. I'm glad I got to see them then.
