 Gregory Linton This one I can thank Scott Fegley for, he bought me tickets but wasn't at the show. This was an eye opener, what an amazing guitar playing, stellar. Al Di Meola May 07, 2021
 Gregory Linton This was a great one, I think Tom, Crystal and Tim came along, but I'm not sure. It was really cool to have Steve Howe playing in both bands. Must have been a tireing tour for him. He played the Grammy nominated Masquerade and Intersection Blues, I love when he does his solo stuff. Yes opened with Firebird Suite, its such a great way to open the show. Its a shame that Tim didn't get to see Jon singing, Jon brings so much to the performance, it's not just his voice but his presence and ability to bring the fans up! Asia was great too, I liked how they played various songs from the other bands they were in, and some killer bands at that, King Crimson, ELP and The Buggles. Great stuff! I ran into Barbara Edmonds from work. Yes / Asia May 07, 2021
 Gregory Linton Tom and I went to see them once again. We didn't have great seats but the show was still amazing, the highlight for me was The Camera Eye, for some reason I never realized how astonishing the drumming is on that one, I did this night. Plus three instrumentals can't be beat! Best band ever! Rush May 07, 2021
 Gregory Linton This was a great one, I wanna say it was Tom, Tim, Crystal came along but I'm not certain, it was amazing to have Steve play in both bands, he played the Grammy nominated Masquerade, and Intersection blues. I love when he plays his solo stuff. The show opened with Firebird Suite, I was a shame that Tim didn't get to see Jon Anderson singing, he was still excited, but really missed out. Jon brings not only his voice but a feeling you don't get with the other singers. Asia was awesome as well, loved how they covered the bands the member had played in. Yes / Asia May 07, 2021
 Gregory Linton When it was announced that they would be coming to Reading, it was so bittersweet. Benoit David was singing, so it was not what I would have liked for my hometown. But I have to give the guy credit, he didn't shy away from any of the music, I was really surprised to hear such a varied group of songs, ones I've never heard them do before. Even a Conspiracy song. It was better than I expected but I still missed Jon. Oliver Wakeman was on keyboard, so that was cool. It was the only time Yes came to Reading, the Performing Arts Center is perfect for Yes. I saw Bob Simmons from work at the show. Didn't expect him to be there, apparently, his wife is a huge Yes fan. Yes May 07, 2021
 Chodan1 This was the transition years of REO Speedwagon. Prior to this year they were a rock band that played some great songs like 157 Riverside Avenue. But in the 80s they became a pop band. It was a surprise to me, I was all about their earlier music but they had their most success with the switch to pop. I didn’t get to see them perform 157 Riverside Avenue live in 1981 but saw them later in life in Panama City Beach Florida and they did it then. Made my year complete. REO Speedwagon May 07, 2021
 Chodan1 41 years after seeing Kiss for the first time I saw them again with one of the same friends I saw them with the first time. Danny Grabill and I, along with his brother Troy enjoyed Kiss in Jacksonville, FL. The band members changed a bit but they continued to rock and please the crowd! KISS May 06, 2021
 Chodan1 This was the first concert I ever attended. Gave me the fever to see many more. I attended this concert via a bus ride from Altoona, PA to the show. My good friend Danny Grabill and my friend Lisa Knee rode the bus over and enjoyed the show! It was one of the most entertaining and captivating concerts I’ve seen. KISS May 06, 2021
 e3bonz My first concert, Black Oak Arkansas was not there, it was Rick Derringer and Ambrosia. Black Oak Arkansas and Foghat May 06, 2021

 steven_novakovich@yahoo.com Parts of 'KISS: Alive II' were recorded Aug 26th, 27th, 28th at these shows. KISS / Cheap Trick May 06, 2021
 Mickey Edwards I know I'm remembering correctly. I saw Foghat somewhere between June and December of 1979. It was in Savanna Georgia. They were warmed up by a 3 piece band I wasn't familiar with. What stuck with me was the bass player of the unknown band would grab one of the strings of his bass, and pull it far enough away from the guitar that he could play what sounded like lead. I've never seen it before or since it, and I don't know the band's name. Really hope someone will read this, and be able to help me out. mickeyedwards513@gmail.com Foghat May 06, 2021

 kwyjibo2112 I can't believe it has been 27 years today that we went to this show. Counterparts is my favorite post 1980s RUSH album. My younger brother and I took our mom to this show. Seeing her singing the chorus of The Spirit Of Radio was the best part, for us. Having her go with us was such a surprise to us because we were just kids in 1979, when the Who show in Cincinnati went to pot. My parents were convinced that If we went to a concert, something terrible would happen to us. The worst thing that has happened at any show I've been to was at this show, when a guy from Candlebox's crew ran out on stage during their last song and mooned the crowd. A bonus that no photos were taken of that. My favorite RUSH concert to date. Rush / Candlebox May 04, 2021
