@muddyrats Yup. The Schaefer Beer Concerts. First 10 rows, $2. The rest for a dollar. Best thing was there were two shows a nite. Sometimes 2 days in a row. POCO was a must-see-every-show. Great music, great times.

I can honestly say, I currently see the Colorado mountains' sky.

@Topkat311 I agree but they at least can be credited with Country Rock B4 the Eagles, even though the Eagles got credit for it. The Eagles mangr. made them start recording in England (cos it was cheaper) b4 the states cos thats where Poco was not at yet and then the majic began!

@MrsClippit ABC, KABC channel 7, In Concert, KLOS95.5 FM. Oh yeah.

@muddyrats I also saw them many times in Central Park . Tickets were $1.50 for the balcony & $2.50 for the lower level. They rocked that joint, but no wonder they didn't make any money! How did they put on concerts at that price? with an opening act too!!! What a great place to see a live show! Yes, great memories!

@Topkat311 this is funny because my mom wanted to go to Woodstock but my dad said no because it was supposed to rain lol every yr on the anniversary of the festival my mother gives my father hell

@muddyrats yeah, I paid $2 to see Cream on their first American tour.

@degree7 Gram should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He was on the list of nominees years ago and you would have thought he would have gotten in by now. Not only did he influence the Southern California sound, he also influenced the Stones and some people think he might have been a major influence in punk. In fact, Elvis Costello often sings his praises.



Saw an interview with Rusty Young where he said they were invited to play at Woodstock & their manager told them it might rain & nobody would show up!!! What an Epic mistake that probably cost Poco the fame they so richly deserved...

LOL I remember those simulcasts where you could watch on TV and turn your stereo on and listen along.. Funny thing was, it was ALWAYS late at night (at least in Calif where I grew up)and you would always want to turn up the stereo and end up wakin all the neighbors up!!
