First: Black Sabbath, Apollo, 1975 (October I think)
Last: Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine, Barras, November 2007 - when I realised I'm now way too old for standy up jump about gigs :cry:

I think my first was Hawkwind at Glasgow City Hall, when would that have been? I think it was in support of their Masters of the Universe LP with Stacia on stage so 71-ish I guess- shock horror - boobies & dope aplenty.

An apt description of Hidden Glasgow.

Think my first was Yes and Gary Wright at the Kelvin Hall in '72. Latest Danny and the Champions of the World, Pivo Pivo, early December. Lots of Celtic Connections shows coming up.

First open air concert since Covid19 and we travelled down south to Dublin to see 'The Eagles' at Aviva Stadium.
What an atmosphere and the music was something else. Great night and they had Deacon Frey the son of the late Glenn on playing guitar and singing for part of the evening.

Jackson 5 London 1977 and Billy Joel Wembley 2019, they were both brilliant acts/venues!
