Dude, this list is a FRAUD... The YES performance was postponed due to weather...

I now have to question the credibility of your entire list now....what other shows are made up on this list??? Did Styx even tour with The Babys???

I am shocked....

[StoneTheCrow]

The Hooters headlined the Cap Center? Wow.

[ggw]

The Hooters headlined the Cap Center? Wow.

I would assume Loverboy was the headliner on that bill.

[radley17]

Loverboy headlined the Cap Center? Wow.

[StoneTheCrow]

Yeah.  WTF would go to that?

[Here's the thing]

Does anyone remember those $5 shows at the Cap Centre in the last 70's? I think it was called Summerfest or something. Carnival in the parking lot, and a week full of shows for cheap prices. I saw Molly Hatchet and Loverboy one night, and Triumph a couple of nights later. I think there was maybe a Kool and the Gang show, and possibly others. For the record, Molly Hatchet was pretty good, and Triumph was great. Loverboy, not much to see there...

[StoneTheCrow]

My brother saw that Triumph show. First concert any of my siblings had ever been to. I was unbearably jealous of him at the time.

[Yada]

is the point of this thread to post shows you've gone to on the specified date or just post shows that happened on said date?

[Dejecty-hatch lııllı|̲̅̅●̲̅̅|̲̅̅=̲̅̅|̲̅̅●̲̅̅|llıl]

wait...thread's need points?

[Yada]

wait...thread's need points?

yes, and apostrophes.

[ggw]

My brother saw that Triumph show. First concert any of my siblings had ever been to. I was unbearably jealous of him at the time.

I saw Triumph at the Patriot Center in 1986.  The opener was none other than Yngwie J. Malmsteen.  And yes, he did unleash the fuckin' fury.

[grateful]

I was there too
