ABBA 1979 USA TOUR REVIEW

[wafrom]

thanks for a great footage.

Something i notice in the hazy film of the Los Angeles concert at the end of this report, which was the 6th concert in the tour, is how fresh and rested A & F look, by the time they got to Wembley and its filming 6 weeks later they looked rightfully stressed out by the hectic pace of the tour.

Thanks for posting this fascinating flashback. ABBA was a great live act and I regret I never had the chance to see them in concert. A rock purist friend of mine saw them perform in Toronto in 79. He says he was dragged kicking and screaming to the show but to this day he still ranks it as one of the best concerts he's ever seen.

I was 16 when they came to the US and my parent's wouldn't let me take a train or bus to go see them in NYC or Boston. I live in Hartford, CT and was so pissed at my parents!!!! I wish they came to the Hartford Civic Center.

[jclem79]

Yes, I was there, Row 20 on the floor. Unbelievably awesome. Wish they did another round.

We drove from Iowa to see the Chicago show.....no tickets, just bought scalps on the street, dumb luck, great show, and very glad we saw them.y

I did see this ABBA concert in Anaheim 1979 - They were even more outstanding live than on wax.

The biggest disappointments in my life is that I had a chance to see the Beatles and ABBA live in concert and I choose not to go, and I didn't remember why. Maybe I thought, "the next time they come to town". Go see your favs when you get the chance, there may never be another time.

Thanks for posting.
