 Ric Kilmer I first enjoyed what has become known today as the early 1960s "Girl Group" sound. Back in the day, after moving with Grandma Bessie from Alaska to LA around 1960, I enjoyed hearing this sound on my onr earphone as I rode my bike around town. The Shirelles Dec 18, 2020
 Rosebud I was on the front row right under Matt. Muse / Razorlight Dec 18, 2020
 Rosebud Front row right underneath Dan's mic. He tossed a guitar pick into the crowd and it landed in my ear. He signed it afterward. The Black Keys / Jessica Lea Mayfield Dec 18, 2020
 Rosebud Phenomenal set. Everyone was yelling for Sabotage in the Encore and they delivered. Beastie Boys / Talib Kweli Dec 18, 2020
 Ric Kilmer I did see Steve Hackett in the audience. (It was a small place, seating about a hundred or so I'd guess, but I could be wrong. You sat around tables, not in a standard row of seats like many concert venues.) I was sitting with at a table with some folks I didn't know. After chatting with them for awhile, before the show, one guy, realizing from our chat that I was a big Genesis fan, directed my attention to a guy sitting at the table close behind us. He said that's Steve Hackett. I didn't quite buy it at first, 'cause the guy didn't look lik the Steve Hackett I had seen in photos. This guy was clean-shaven and didn't wear glasses. So I stood up, walked over and said words to the effect of excuse me, are you Steve Hackett. He said he was. And I said I just wanted to shake your hand (he held his out to shake mine) and to tell you how much I admire your guitar-playing. He thanked me and I went back to my table, not invading his privacy anymore. Brand X Dec 18, 2020
 Ric Kilmer I had just moved back to the Seattle area (late May 1979) to the U District, from UCLA. Market Theater: http://cinematreasures.org/theaters/11578 Robert Fripp Dec 18, 2020
 Ric Kilmer I also saw a solo Robert Fripp "Frippertroncis" show around this time (1979-82) in a small club across the street, down the Pike Place Alley near the now-famous "gum wall." I'll try to find the exact date. King Crimson / Adrian Belew / Tony Levin Dec 18, 2020

 Ric Kilmer I saw either this show or one of the earlier ones (three dates) at the Ballard Firehouse mentioned in this newspaper article: https://archive.seattletimes.com/archive/?date=19950113&slug=2099186 Missing Persons / Box of Daylight Dec 17, 2020
 Ric Kilmer I had recently moved to UCLA (Aug. 1976) and shortly afterward went to see Leadon at nearby McCabe's. (He had just left The Eagles.) But I'm uncertain of the date (late 1976 to 1977?). Bernie Leadon Dec 17, 2020

 Ric Kilmer Need I say more? I finally got to see Paul live. I saw George in 1974, then Ringo a few times later. Sadly, I never got to see John. Paul McCartney Dec 17, 2020
 Ric Kilmer Check out the 1968 Manhattan rooftop concert by the Jefferson Airplane; it's eerily similar: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vuwMEiNg3B8 The Beatles / Billy Preston Dec 17, 2020

 Ric Kilmer Yep! It was this concert, and it was an M-80 firework! I was there! See: https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/best-and-worst-rock-concert-moments Jethro Tull / Sensational Alex Harvey Band Dec 17, 2020
 Ric Kilmer Was this the show where Ian Anderson stopped mid-song to verbally attack an audience member for throwing something (rose stem?) onstage that hit Anderson in the face? Or was it the Aug. 21, 1976 Seattle concert? Jethro Tull / Sensational Alex Harvey Band Dec 17, 2020
 Ric Kilmer I'm not certain of the day I attended. The show opened Jan. 14. But I attended a very early show. I remember standing in the sunny afternoon line before the show with Roger McGuinn (of The Byrds) and the very thin Lorraine Newman of "Saturday Night Live". Beatlemania Dec 17, 2020
