Saw NILS LOFGRIN at the Cow Palace,san francisco, calif in mid 77, the first band was STARCASTLE and the headliner was the band BOSTON,on there first tour,,,NILS was promoting I came to dance,,,

Different genre, but as underated as Rory Gallagher. Neither realized a strat isn't an orchestra; thank God!
-
@canisp06 I would love to see Nils and Mike Campbell play together though. That or Grin reform...
-
I saw Nils in Edinburgh on this tour and he was just fantastic. Tom Petty was ok but I was there for the main man, Nils, my hero back then!
-
LOL. No way Tom Petty being beter than Nils. He can't even flip.
-
Genius!
-
@BARRIEMOREBARLOW How true ;)
-
What band did Nils go onto to play with??
-
@devonandc I think Nils is probably more of a studio musician than a live act. He's good headphone music...
As much as I like Tom Petty and his band....I find it very hard to foresee any situation where he would 'blow-off' Lofgren.....your words, not mine mr manifestly. It also pains me to see a fellow Englishman displaying such a lack of perspicacity.

@clean3 I'm afraid it's true. I'm a big Lofgren fan (obvious seeing as I put up this video), but it's a generally accepted fact by anyone who saw this tour that Tom Petty & Heartbreakers stole the show as the opening act. Nobody had heard of TP&THB when this tour opened in Cardiff, but he was encour hailed until Lofgren appeared. Petty also played at the WDR studios and I've posted one of his numbers from that show up here.
