One day during the summer of 1999, I got a call from the other drummer in jazz band, asking if I wanted four tickets to see Blue Öyster Cult, Nazareth, and Survivor at Pine Knob Music Theatre. A friend of mine and I would jam on Blue Öyster Cult’s “Godzilla” regularly when we played, so naturally I said yes. We rounded up a couple of friends, drove out to Clarkston, MI, and had a blast at the show. What made it even more fun was that it was one of the first big concerts I went to without an adult tagging along to drive.
