Heart's 1981 Concert History

Heart is an American rock band formed in 1970 in Seattle, Washington, by Steve Fossen (bass guitar), Roger Fisher (guitar), David Belzer (keyboards), and Jeff Johnson (drums). It evolved from an existing band, White Heart. The vocalists for Heart are sisters Ann Wilson (lead vocals, flute, guitar) and Nancy Wilson (vocals, guitar, mandolin). Heart has sold over 35 million records worldwide and has placed top 10 albums on the Billboard 200 in the 1970s, 1980s, 1990 and 2010s. Heart was ranked number 57 on VH1's "100 Greatest Artists of Hard Rock". In 2013, Heart was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

I saw Heart/John Cougar in 1983 at the Hirsch Memorial Colliseum, Shreveport, La. I don't remember the exact date, but it's not listed here. 🤔

Tagray61 - Do you understand how this site works? As users, WE are the ones who put the shows in here. If you know the show existed, take the time and put it in the list. It's pretty easy...

Heart played at the Cape Cod Coliseum, Yarmouth, MA on August 13, 1977 and it is not on this list.
