REO Speedwagon, headlining with Fleetwood Mac and Pat Benetar at Starwood in Nashville.... I remember enjoying this concert, but not really remembering a lot about it.
It was my buddy John's birthday. I remember buying his ticket to this show for him as a gift. By the way, check out the price on that one. $12.50! Even back then I think we were pretty pleased with the value of this show. I am sure we were ticked off by ticket master though, who surely added a $3-$4 charge on to the price somehow.
I was excited about seeing Fleetwood Mac. AND, this was one of their non-classic line up shows. No Stevie and no Lindsey. They did have the very youthful Bekka Bramlett singing. They also had Billy Burnette and Dave Mason on guitars.
I kinda felt like getting to see Dave Mason with them was a bonus. I've always liked him.
Still, my favorite member of Fleetwood Mac is Lindsey Buckingham, and it is just odd having FM without him.
I remember Pat Benetar and REO Speedwagon doing their hits. I also remember a fight breaking out at the beginning of Fleetwood Mac's set near where we were standing in the lawn area. It went on for a while, and I was getting concerned that security didn't get there immediately to break it up. They got there, but it took a little while.
