 Bannerman Remember the skydivers and the one guy landing in the crowd? He missed the infield. Lynyrd Skynyrd / Rex / REO Speedwagon / Foreigner / Ted Nugent Apr 13, 2022
 Bannerman I was so excited to go to this show. It was only a few miles from my house. For years I searched for the recording of this show, and finally found it. They had some feedback issues during a couple of songs, so they spliced in recordings from another show. A few songs from their new album were cut from the recording due to contractual issues.

 Bannerman Massive people everywhere. We showed up about 10pm I think the night before. We got caught up in a surge of crushing people pushed up against a fence. It was bad. Really bad. Could barely breathe. After awhile they plowed through the fence and they had to let us inside. The show was fun. Got to see some great bands. We ended up leaving during Aerosmith, we were beat. My dad somehow found us to take us home. He was pissed. Back then there were no cell phones. California Jam II 1978 Apr 13, 2022
 Bannerman Interesting place for a concert. Back then I went to most of nearby shows. The seating was steep amphitheater style, so nobody was blocking your view. I took a bunch of photos that day. Shot with a Canon AE-1 FUJI 35mm. Blue Oyster Cult Apr 13, 2022

 Pahrumperware I wish I can remember those things. The only time I recall an issue with the stadium heaving was during the Beach Boys, July 3rd 1976. Sadly, I think the sun and half pints in cracker boxes muddled memories. I do have memories of skydivers making a circle at a concert but I think over the years have blurred the extra things to any concert instead of the specific one. Thanks for confirming my memory that the plane crash wasn't long after. So glad I can say I saw them. Lynyrd Skynyrd / Rex / REO Speedwagon / Foreigner / Ted Nugent Apr 12, 2022
 Byron M. Cowley Yes,hoagie, I remember all that also. It was such a special time being there. I am a native of the Philadelphia area. I was in the Marine Corps in those days and got to see a lot of concerts out in the West. This show was great. REO Speedwagon was breaking out, Foreigner was brand new, Ted and Skynyrd were on top of their game. I did remember Ron Nix and the freefall circle. I was on the field trying to get a better view. That was my 4th time seeing the original Skynyrd line up. 2 months later working the flight line in Yuma, it came across the radio about the tragic plane crash. Lynyrd Skynyrd / Rex / REO Speedwagon / Foreigner / Ted Nugent Apr 12, 2022
 Hoagie 2 things nobody has commented on: Ron Nix? jumped off a tower into cardboard boxes (new Guiness record) people jumping from airplane and doing freefall circle, people stomping up and down during Freebird, stadium was heaving so bad they stopped song? Does anyone else remember that? Lynyrd Skynyrd / Rex / REO Speedwagon / Foreigner / Ted Nugent Apr 12, 2022
