92 degrees, folks were being hauled out. We had a big cooler of ice and limes we passed out. Everyone was sitting or lying down.
Johnny Winter was second to last. First song got the crowd on their feet and tapping. Second dancing, and hooting and hollering after that. Best Winter I've seen out of 25 concerts. A lot left before ZZ to have Winter in our heads. The band told us later they loved being second last; impossible to follow!
I was there, it was awesome, and look at that ticket price... We had a large American Flag, to mark our location... Does anyone remember that? ????????????????????????✌????✌????✌????
I was there. Tampa State Fairgrounds. Tickets were $10.
ZZ Top, Johnny Winter, Marshall Tucker, Ozark Mountain Daredevils, Atlanta Rhythm Section, Pure Prairie League, War & Kiss. (Kiss was pretty unknown outside NYC at that time) It was a southern rock era concert but War and Kiss were there.
Very hot temp wise. It was announced that crowd was around 45,000 and they kept announcing what the bad drugs looked like that were being sold there.
Best concert I ever saw out of many.
