Periodically I will mention to MiDiva that I have seen this group or that artist in concert and her response is that I should start writing down all the artists I have seen perform live.
So this is the beginning of that compilation -- and I will be adding those recollections when something jogs my memory.
The most recent, of course, was Reba McEntire. We saw her at this year's State Fair. The first time I saw her was when I was working at a country radio station in Northern California. The station had a partnership with a performing arts center and would frequently act as Master of Ceremonies when a country act was scheduled to perform.
This was early in Reba's career, and my strongest memory is of her sitting at a table in the lobby signing autographs. I remember her as a genuine, nice person and it was such a pleasure to meet her. She put on an amazing show and still does to this day.
Cool, can't wait for you to share your stories. Next time you can talk about Sonny and Cher or maybe June Carter Cash???
