Actually do recall that two of the aforementioned bands played on same bill in 1977.

Styx OPENED for KISS with a relatively unknown CHEAP TRICK starting the whole thing off.

Boy, those were the days. Like five hours of concert for maybe $15

Missed Styx - but first concert was Cheap Trick opening for Kiss in 77 at the Cow Palace in San Francisco. Coming full circle and going to see Cheap Trick open for Boston in July at the Hard Rock here in Vegas.

Loved the Philly music scene back in those days....the A's, Hooters and Robert Hazard - who I always thought was going to make it big.
