Because I am a musical notenudnik I have a long history of attending major music concerts:
Edmonton Gardens (where I also had seasons tickets for the Oil Kings junior hockey):
-- age 10ish -- Concert with Johnny Cash and Jerry Lee Lewis ('I Walk the Line' and 'Great Balls of Fire')
-- before that time country music artists Ray Price and Hank Snow ('Hello Walls' and 'Fool such as I')
-- the Who (1967) with Hermans Hermits plus the Who in Ottawa (1968 with Ohio Express, The Troggs + The Stampeders), Pete Townsend (los Angeles) and Pete + Roger Daltry + Zak Starr (Hollywood Bowl)
-- 3 Dog Night ('Shambala') (1970s)
Jubilee Auditorium:
-- Procol Harum (with Edmonton Symphony 'Whiter Shade of Pale')
-- Petula Clark ('Downtown')
-- Goose Creek Symphony ('O Lord won't you buy me a Merceds Benz')
-- Dr. Hook Medicine Show ('Sylvia's Mother')
Room at the Top (U of A)
-- Leonard Cohen ('Suzanne')
-- Locals including Willie and the Walkers, Wes Dakus and the Rebels, The Kingbeez, The Lords, and Graeme & the Waifer
Outside of Edmonton:
-- CSNY (Hollywood Bowl)
-- The Rolling Stones (Dodger Stadium)
-- The Detroit Wheels (Ottawa Civic Centre)
...and many more at a more local level
