Pershing Auditorium in Lincoln, NE. October 19, 1974 was Hawkwind (Hall of the Mountain Grill Tour) with Rush opening. (First USA tour for Rush).
November 21, 1970 (the week after Iron Butterfly) I saw Steppenwolf. Also January 31, 1971, Three Dog Night was at Pershing.
You forgot the 1981 Oct 18th Blackfoot & Def Leppard at the Pershing Auditorium in Lincoln, Ne. Def Leppard opened up for Blackfoot and Def Leppard was not even a know band name and wasn't even on the venue or ticket stub.
Man you are missing a ton of concerts..however I don't know what they all were. 1987-1995 I can guarantee there were shows. I saw Midnight Oil at Pershing in 1993. Also saw Soul asylum during that period.
