Wow, some of You people are very old. My grandmother says that at early 70 people eat each other, and there was no TV. And sometimes walks around huge reptiles

Jethro Tull 1972 - Aqualung Tour - still stands out (after all these years)as one of the best concerts I have seen! If I recall correctly some material from "Warchild" was introduced at this concert.

1972 - Yes Fragile tour. They played "The Pit", literally a hole in the ground at Stetson University in DeLand Florida. About 500 people showed up - it was all word-of-mouth. Free admission of course. I was 18 at the time.
Come to think of it I saw Jethro Tull's Aqualung tour in late71/early 72 but I don't remember which came first. Old age is setting in! |

Here's the setlist from the Yes show: Firebird Suite In all honesty, I was unfamiliar with Ritual at the time and remember being slightly bored during it. But the Relayer material was astonishing. |

I honestly cannot say which concert was my first one. all I know is I
was still a little kid then (a few months old). my parents went to
concerts with me. yes, I really grew up with prog. amazingly my mother
claims I only ever cried when my diapers had to be changed or when I
was hungry. my parents were real weirdos back when prog started

Pink Floyd, Oslo - Division Bell tour 1994. Since that I've seen Jethro Tull, King Crimson and Anekdoten live, all of them playing in Bergen. (not a lot of prog shows in Norway, unless you count various metal bands, in which case I've seen Enslaved half a dozen times) |

Yes - Paris 2003 One of the best moment in my life. An excellent live (some moments can be seen on Yesspeaks) with enthousiastic audience. And I was at the second row (just behind Rick's wife), so I got excelent sound and vision!!! |

You guys are OLD !!!! Joking... I was born in 1987 so... not a good time to start seeing prog shows. But i've seen 2 or 3 anyway: The lamb lies down on Broadway and Selling England by the pound from The musical Box and I also saw a show with a participation of Ian Anderson

AREA in 1974 in Sesto San Giovanni (Milan) during the occupation of a school... It was a very intense political period. Somewhere I should have the poster of Arbeit macht frei. Edited by MDOMANIN |
