re: #1556 albusteve

really…what a gig!…yowza!

I saw David Cassidy there when I was 12. My parents took me :) I guess it was my first concert, come to think of it.

Anyway, he came out in a white jumpsuit that was fairly popular in the day. He stood with his back to the audience singing “I think I love you” and shaking his fanny through the whole song. People began yelling at him to turn around. When he wouldn’t, they started lobbing mud balls at him (summer rain in Milwaukee can make a field mighty dirty). When he got hit by one, he stopped singing, turned around (finally!) and shouted, “I’m never coming back to Milwaukee again!” and left the stage.

In better news, a couple years later, the Beach Boys sang “409” to my g/f for her birthday. Much better concert.
