No cell phones, no fancy light show, no dancers. You were there for the music and you got it. Big time.
I was there! And 53 years later, it is still the best concert I've ever been to! "Closer to Home/ I'm Your Captain" was the anthem for us Vietnam era generation kids. We were all one big family that night. Grand Funk rocked the stadium in the truest sense of the word! In fact, they almost stopped the concert because the authorities actually thought that the stadium was going to cave in from our jumping up and down in the bleachers! Oh, what memories !!!!
They were so popular in the early 70s that our BOE . chartered 2 Grayhound Busses to take 80 students and 20 teachers to see Grand Funk in Feb. 1973, at Charleston , W. Va. I was in 12th grade, I had hair down to my belt. I met Mark after a solo concert in 2008 in Potrsmouth ,Ohio.. , nice guy,, He was the reason I grew my hair so long.
That's cool
The concert I went to back in 72 or 73 was the best concert up until like Pink Floyd or something. They started out with foot stomping music as the first song they played and I can't remember anything past that! So you know it was a good night!
Foot stomping music and shining on
There are so many good songs by GFR. To me I have always thought of the ship as a metaphor for his body. The song of a dying man, "don't take my ship (body) away." "Getting closer to my home" is him getting closer to death. Just my own take. Glad ya'll did this.
I saw Grand Funk Railroad in Concert in AMSTERDAM in the early 70's and the Drummer was playing from the start through the break and continued till the show was over. It was EPIC.
The only band to ever sell out Shea Stadium faster than The Beattles did.
I was there and it was as much fun as it looked. We rocked the place so hard they later brought engineers in to make sure the stadium had not moved on its foundation. On their live album Mark Farner asks the fans in the front not to get on each other's shoulders so the people in the back can see.
Lucky you
Was at this concert and the seats were vibrating with bass
That's cool!
1. My all time favorite GFR song!
2. Saw them at the Reno GSR on 10/22/22. 😎
3. I was in the US Navy for 24 years so there's somthin' there
This brings me back to my days in Military School. Windows open and blasting this song. Great memories.
GFR we’re the real deal. From the late 60’s through the mid 70’s they sold millions of records Oh listen to “Foot Stompin Music”. There’s a live video out there somewhere.
All the more amazing because these guys were 19-20 years old in this show. Music from my youth!
Always looked forward to Mark and the boys coming to town .
These guys were all over the radio back in my high school days. I knda forgot how good they were. My bad.
He goes on about being sick, lost and alone at sea.... Even questioning if he's dreaming or if there's people taking the ship. The ending always brings tears to my eyes because I feel like his mind, life, and boat are all drifting away.... maybe closer to home is heaven. He just keeps repeating it over and over like he's slowly going mad from fever. Either way, the moment the sad violins play is when I always lose it.
Mark Farner wrote most of their hit songs. A few were covers too. Today GFR is a cover band. Mark Farner is GRAND FUNK RAILROAD heart and soul.
I agree about todays GFR is a cover band because no Farner no GFR
They sold out Shea stadium faster than the Beatles did. Did it in 72 hrs, The Beatles took considerably longer. This was an anthem the soldiers from Vietnam listened to and requested. Love Mark Farner. Saw Grand Funk Oct 28th. Not the same without Mark Farner, but still good ❤ in 1972, they added a keyboardist.
Wow
Yeah, this show sold out quicker at Shea quicker than the Beatles. It is pretty well- known so all of you may have heard once or twice on radio .
I like the studio version much better, the sound and words are better
I love watching you three react to these older bands music.
I was never fortunate to see GFR in person but danced to their music at parties and just hanging out with friends.
What’s amazing is the majority of the young people enjoying this concert, having so much fun are now around my age (72). We could party with the best of them! 😂
Keep up with the great videos, brings back so many fond memories!
Thanks
I saw them up close about fifteen years ago-it was soooo surreal. This is one of my faves from them.
This was their second-to-last song, they closed the show with “American Band.” So awesome.
Omg I bet that was awesome.
That was the actual Stadium bouncing up and down the structures we're moving so they called Structural Engineers during the concert for fear that the stadium May collapse this was the last concert at Shea Stadium for fear of people getting too rowdy in the stadium coming down
You guys really need to ramp it up with a forgotten gem from Grand Funk Railroad. The song is FOOT STOMPIN' MUSIC. And it's really a blast. And the girl likes leather pants, show her Jim Morrison and the Doors as they perform LIGHT MY FIRE on the Ed Sullivan Show. Enjoy
Hey, I've been to Shea stadium, which doesn't exist anymore, probably in 1970 for a ball game back in middle school.
Big hit. A lot of air play. Knew you would know it.
All the bleachers were swaying , the Stadium was oscillating. engineers were brought in, and they almost shut the show down due to real fear the stadium would collapse.
Those are cement bleachers that are not suppose to move.
Reminds me of moving to Colorado at a truck stop with my newlywed wife. We had a moment. She is gone but the memories remain. 😊
What a treat to see the same person at 3 stages of there life. you women are amazing
Thanks
If Lulu likes eather pants , she needs to see an old video of Steppenwolf . Lead singer John Kay used leather pants and shades as his trademark look . Although the shades were out of necessity, as he is legally blind , extremely light sensitive, and color blind .
I am a Texan from Corpus Christi. Well let me correct myself.I am a Tejano a Mexican born in Texas the Alamo all that thing when grand funk would come to play. We had no choice but to sit outside of the auditorium because it was sold out. But they were so f****** loud you can hear them outside and we enjoyed it by the Bayside the ocean😊❤
Hello from another Texan.
Wow. I was 10 in 1971. Thanks to my older brother, this was one of the first bands I really enjoyed. Thanks for the memories. 🤟🤟
Glad you enjoyed it
I was supposed to go to this concert but i had just graduated high school in June and had to work the next day and when i suggested to the boss i may not be in any shape to work he said if i didn't show up i didn't have a job so i didn't go.
The bleachers that have you nervous also had the guys in white shirts nervous....they are engineers and because of those bleachers they closed things down early.....many people were upset at the band for the short show not knowing it wasn't their choice,
Wow... I actually saw them in concert in Morgantown, W.Va. in 1970. I had just gotten out of the U.S. Army in March and saw them a couple of months later. One thing I wanted to point out..... there were only THREE band members. They put out like there were twelve of them. Take care....
Elvis black leather was no joke 68 come back special 😊
Ok.. "Put it in the comments"... Paranoid- Live album! Or "Mark says alright"- Live album!
been to shea stadium love it
Great song!
You've all probably heard We're an American Band. IMHO one of the best bands of all time that should have been in the Hall of Fame years ago!
Another great reaction ladies. Heartbreaker from the same concert is awesome. Would really love to see your reaction to it.
Added!
un bon groupe en live , beaucoup d'énergie et de groove👍👍
Grand Funk Loneliest Rider
As much as I LOVE listening to live cuts of great songs, I really believe you've gotta hear the album/studio cut first. You've gotta hear it at the bare bones before hearing all the bells and whistles. Just an opinion. As mentioned, I LOVE hearing live cuts of great tunes!!
The message I just wrote might not sound right, I meant the two generations behind Donna are PRETTY because of Donna being Pretty
Need to hear mean mistreaterI can feel him in the morning
Maybe there will be a "LULU LEATHER" clothing company in the future.
Lol
Red leather bellbottoms would be a lulu. : )
Listen to (Foot Stomping Music) on a really good sound system....an album if you dare.....And the first song you played by Grand Funk....It was a live take....They have their place but in this case what we need is the best clean sound that can be found and that's the studio version...Mark plays it differently...just a little.....I'm sorry I bothered you, but I had to set the record straight ....
Ladies, please check out Crosssroads by Cream and Meatloaf, Bat out of Hell.
Why don't reactors react to Gimmie Shelter they copy it as good as Rollin Stones or Uriah Heep July Morning Live in the 70s
