6/16/74 Des Moines show
Nice to see photos from my second show!! Unfortunately, it was my one and only outdoor show with that Wall ‘o Sound. Being in an appropriate frame of mind (thanks to my roommate’s lab partner), I can recall very little of that magical afternoon, other than the fact that I had a WONDERFUL time. One memory is crystal clear: watching (with wonder and a certain amount of fear) crew members climbing up the scaffolding, pausing at each speaker until the ‘problem’ was located. Then the process of removing the speaker from the stack and hoisting another to take its place!!
Hats off to the crew.
