Thanks for your kind reply. I'd had about 3 (or 4) Bridgeport IPA's when I wrote it, so was afraid it was a rambling mess. If you saw the Blazers, it was probably in the Rose Garden, not the Coliseum, the Rose Garden is much bigger. Coliseum seats 12,666 for basketball, so maybe 14,000 and change with the floor in use. Saw Further there in 2010 and was surprised at how small it seemed. Looked a lot bigger in 1974! Easily one of the best shows I've seen, 12-31-76 being a close second.
And if you haven't, check out the Dark Star > Eyes > China Doll from Portland 6-24-1973.
Best wishes, Joe
The Wall Of Sound! You've seen pictures, But in person it was.... Ever been to the Grand Canyon? Seen pictures of it all your life, but when you see it in person you REALLY appreciate its majesty.
