Harlem Globetrotters rocked it at Municipal Auditorium!  Great crowd, and fantastic show.  It's the 87th Anniversary of the 'Globies,' and that has them traveling all over the world this year.

Check out Buckets Blakes with me in the 105.9 Studio.

 L to R - Quake Milum, Mighty, and Moose backstage at Municipal! 

Harlem Globetrotters put on a fantastic show, and had a big crowd.  Thank you for coming out!  Cool to get back to Municipal Auditorium.

Since 1962, Municipal Auditorium has been standing.  (The first public assembly facility in the Mid-South with air-conditioning!)  My favorite part about seeing things in Municipal, is the concert history; Check out the tickets above the Globes heads.  It got me thinking concerts.

Springsteen in 1978 at Municipal.

When you, 'Go Home to Rock Dome,' at Municipal Auditorium, walk the full circle, and check out all the concert tickets around the top wall.  

Here are two greats;  On the right the Volunteer Jam, Jan. 14th 1978.  To the left is Van Halen, August 5th, 1980! 

Best part, that ticket price for Van Halen.  Look close....$7.50!  A beer is more than that now! 

All seats would be general admission, and you would line up early in the morning, or spend the night getting in line.  The Who tragedy in Cincinnati ended all that type of concert seating. 

My first show there was Bad Company in 1978 on the Desolation Angels Tour.  What show did you see at The Municipal?!

That 1980 Van Halen Tour, was titled, " The World Invasion:  Party 'Til You Die Tour.'  Almost worked!  It was off the "Women and Children First,' album tour.  

Always like this one from that album.
