Albert Sims Feb 14, 2024

The October 26, 1986 date isn't listed. Took place in Ruston,
Louisiana at Louisiana Tech University with Herman's Hermits, Gary Puckett, and Grass Roots. An old friend and I attended. Even snapped a few pictures with my old "trusty" Kodak 110 Instamatic. Got a "warning" from a guy on the Tech Union Board saying photos weren't allowed (it WAS on the tickets, I was a "rebel" back in those days), but then he winked, said "But I didn't see anything", and walked off.

The Cleveland show was on January 14, 1967. The opening act was the Candy Store Prophets. so, possibly the Apollas performed.

The concert I mentioned would been in 1966.

I saw the Monkees in Cleveland OH, and was in the TV camera shot on the news at 11 PM that night in the crowd. This concert isn't listed. I was hoping to find both the date and the opening bands.
