It's mckimfamily1234@gmail.com , I prb wont go , I doubt Chip will go unless he is playing in his band, Jon is in San Diego still and broke and not sure if Blystone is still alive.
That is a great pic, was that during Spirits in the Night? If not what song.
I was in BC for a short time, my Dad and Mom divorced when I was about 2 and I lived in Long Island and Upstate NY, hated upstate so decided finish HS with my Dad since I already knew a lot of people from that Neighborhood, Jon, Chip, Bob Brevitz another character I hung with. My Dad flew for the FAA out of BC aftr he retired from the Airforce. Went to Western and then after graduating moved to San Diego where my Mom and Step Dad relocated to. Stayed there for 25 years and here in Florida for the last 18.
I noticed you also went to see DIckey Betts. I live in his hometown now, while he was still able to play, he routinely showed up in Bars here to Jam with his Son Duane Betts and Berry Oakley Jr, what a treat being a life long ABB fan. So in this little area, we have Duane, Berry, Michael Allman and now a third generation of ABB with Dickeys Grandson who plays slide and Berrys son who plays bass. I was able to meet Dickey a number of times as I volunteered for a few benefits he did. His Daughter Kim Betts also had a band and her son went to school with my Daughter, was intro'd to her and she made sure I got to be a volunteer for his events. For such small area we have some Rock Royalty here, Rick Derringer, Brian Johnson are a few.
Ok, that's it for now

Very cool. after the first set I went and got a small Kodak Camera that i got caught with when i went in the first time. I hid it outside. Knew I needed pics, no issues with getting it in the 2nd time. Before the lights went down i casually strolled around those steps until the lights went down. Bruce came out and i took a bunch of pics with people coming up behind me. The Guards were about to shoo us off and Bruce leaned over and said something to one of them and he shrugged his shoulders and walked off and then it got packed and I stayed the whole time. I still have some of those pics packed away, just need to find them again. What a night it was and you are the first person I have ever run into that was there. My College roomie that went with me and I still talk about it this many years later. I have seen him another 35 times since then, some epic shows, but that was the best and # 1 of over 1000 concerts I have been with a loss of hearing to show for it,lol.
So, you went to Lakeview, I think I got a notice about 75 reunion for this summer to or maybe they were combining them. The people I hung with at the time were Jon Whitlock, Doug Blystone, George Depuy, Chip Crooks. I moved to San Diego and Jon followed me there , i am now in Florida. In touch with Chip and on a total coincidence Doug moved to San Diego and lived right accross the street from me on the beach. My Name is Mark McKim I lived right off Riverside Drive, worked at Bill Knapps, Sears and Kmart before i headed off the WMU.

Looked at your list of shows, we went to a lot of the same shows. Bonnie Raitt, i know one of the members of that band of that era personally, grew up with him
Dickey Betts was another one.
Noticed you went to shows in BC. I went to Lakeview Highschool in 1975

I was at the Bruce show at Wings, still number 1 in my well over 1000 concerts I have been too. Was standing at the bottom of the stairs that spanned the stage.
Was stunning, what did you think

Re: Fleetwood Mac 3/23/73. I'm curious as to the source of the date (ticket stub, etc). I saw Fleetwood Mac at Kellogg Auditorium, but my memory is that was before 1973. Unfortunately I don't have anything to back that up. so I'm hoping to get my dates straight. Also, I've recently added a number of concerts from SW Michigan in the '70s. FYI in case there were dates you looked for but weren't sure of.
