[mafd1974]

[ChuckieInMT]

Can you imagine how they were feeling when they wrote this? Crap! Been there, done that a few times -n- IT SUCKS!!! Screw them, though, cuz we luv Gary's guitar!!!

[ChuckieInMT]

Luv K.C. in the Old Skool Keds too, huh?

[mafd1974]

@ChuckieInMT KC's the man.

[Dontjudge4life]

It is worth it.....they are still absolutely amazing in concert!

[mafd1974]

@Dontjudge4life Always a fine time.

[Jayme969]

That was awesome. They can still play really well, so I might have to look at their schedule and see if they're coming into the area.

[mafd1974]

Cool. See - these vids do help the bands. They are actually coming back to this area with Styx and Night Ranger. Thanks for the comment.

[Jayme969]

I check youtube vids on any band for live performances before I lay down the cash for tickets. Definitely a nice resource for me ;) Thanks for posting.

[BluebirdisDead10]

dude i was at that one too. holy crap they are amazing!!!!!

[mafd1974]

Great bands.

[Riptidescool]

Reo SpeedWagon was the very first concert, and at that time, this was still considered old. But this is my favorite song by them.

[mafd1974]

Hey, thanks. Yeah, this is a great track!

[socko4ever]

Hi Mafd1974, actually i am a female,  i went with 2 guy co-workers from DE, one of them, his concert no. 286. Next concert will be Bruce Springsteen, can't wait! Thanks again for video.

[mafd1974]

Oh, sorry for the gender mix-up, haha. At this point my concert total must be around 325 or 350. I'll have to check my notes ... yes, I have been keeping track of the concerts I have gone to since my first one in 1987! If I had more memory in the camera, I would have filmed more. I wanted to record "I Needed To Fall" in its entirety, but they took it out of their set already!!

[steelr66]

nice footage. check out myne from the show as well. what an amazing show!

[mafd1974]

Hey thanks. Yeah, REO is always a good time. I'm on my way to your page!

[mafd1974]

Oh shoot, I deleted socko4ever's other comment by accident. I wish youtube would put an "are you sure" pop-up when the remove option is clicked. In any event, here's what he wrote, " Wow! looks like you had good seats. 2 friends and I were last row to left lower 1st level, liked when people rushed stage".

[mafd1974]

You'll recall only people on the left rushed the stage initially. The rest of us just sat there and waited until we saw people moving up. We were already front row, but being a few extra feet closer was cool. It also gives the opportunity for better photos too.

[mafd1974]

I was seated in the front row and to top it off, I did not buy a ticket until 7:45 PM that night ... just minutes before the concert started. When I arrived, I walked around the venue for a bit and then went to the ticket booth and the woman said front row tix were just released. I was at the last seat all the way on the right facing the stage. That's happened to me before ... venues issue front and second row tix the day of the show. Unpurchased members-first seats I assume.

[socko4ever]

Thanks for video, was there also, 1st time seeing REO, great show, came from DE.

[mafd1974]

Hi there. Glad you made the trek from DE to Lancaster. I drove from NJ. It was well worth it. I made sure to post the footage as soon as I got home so the concert-goers could have a look. Thanks for stopping by.
