In 67 when I was 12 a friend of mine took me to see a guy named Jimi Hendrix at Hunter College in NYC. It was really cool. He set his guitar on fire. My parents, who were so impressed that I was going to a "concert", nearly dropped dead when I came home the next day with a copy of "Are You Experienced" They were pretty radical looking back then, especially that vest with the eyes on it that he was wearing in the picture.
Before They Were Famous
What artists did you see on the way up, before superstardom?
Anyone lucky enough to see the Beatles in Germany? If so, the thread should stop there. Until then, I have two. Aerosmith played at my high school Junior Prom, Stepinac High School in White Plains, N.Y., and I was lucky enough to see John Belushi do Joe Cocker in "Lemmings" at the Village Gate in N.Y.C. around 1970, just before SNL.
