Lol--I saw Ricky Martin at the Sun Bowl (hey--took my teen & her friends!), George Strait, Anthrax/Pantera, Eagles, B.B. King, Cher, & too many I can't even remember. Saw Seinfeld a couple of times. Hard to believe how easily I've forgotten. Guess I'm just too old! I wasn't in EP in the 70s, & spent the 80s raising kids.
I know my older kid saw Rob Zombie & several other groups during the late 90s/early 2000.

Back in the early 1980s we were driving through El Paso and saw an ad for an upcoming concert by The Police. Lucked out and got a ticket for the day were were planning to drive through on the way back. That was one of our best road trips ever.

Ah--just remembered Sammy Hagar (thx, Ms Kitty!). But that was sometime in the late 90s I believe. Oh, also saw Harry Connick, Jr.

Back around 1973 or so I saw Ten Years After (most people left before it was over), Cheech and Chong (nobody left early) and this girl from Mexico dragged to this Sunny Osuna concert. I also remember seeing the Ali/Foreman fight on live TV.
