Leo Kottke's 1983 Concert History

Leo Kottke (born September 11, 1945) is an acoustic guitarist. He is known for a fingerpicking style that draws on blues, jazz, and folk music, and for syncopated, polyphonic melodies. He overcame a series of personal obstacles, including partial loss of hearing and a nearly career-ending bout with tendon damage in his right hand, to emerge as a widely recognized master of his instrument. He currently resides in the Minneapolis area with his family.

@HodgieSr
I saw him there, too, was it the show when he was too drunk to play and rambled on about a wet dream he had?

I know Leo Kottke played at Stetson University (I was a student there) between 1971-1974 but not showing on his concert list…How can I confirm?
