I can finally say it , I was fkn there baby...i was 15 and this was my 1st concert. It was a trip.
Awesome James !!!
I was there too it was an awesome show, I think I was about the same age, my first show was Day on The Green Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Outlaws, Santana & Peter Frampton 1977, I was 13, my mother and her boyfriend took me and one of my friends, Day on The Green's were some of the greatest concerts.

I wasn't here, but I was in Cleveland one week later. No Frank Marino, but Scorpions, AC/DC, Thin Lizzy, Journey, Aerosmith, and Nuge. Top that
Pretty damn strong lineup. In 1979 I saw the Canadian World Music Festival that included: AEROSMITH, NUGENT, NAZARETH, RAMONES, JOHNNY WINTER, GODDO and MOXY. Amazing show!
There is really no topping that lineup saw pink Floyd tho and drank from Bodega bags from complete strangers on the green got lost till every grey Honda left the venue after 2 hours and made it home faded into bed. That was a killer concert tho right!
I thank my brother to bringing me
I was we 15 he got ousted but I allowed to stay it changed my perspective on life these are my favorite bands. PS I got safe ride home
Frank Marino Is An Amazing Everything and NEVER Gets Enough Credit. I Love Him and His Brother Vincent.
1979 I was 16 y/o This was my first day on the green. I remember The Live Power Performance of Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush! I love and listen to FMMR Music to this Day
I was in the Navy stationed at the Naval Air Station Alameda and went to this concert. I was ripped. I don't remember much of it but am pretty sure I had a good time.
That is St. Paradise, which had Derek St. Holmes, Rob Grange and Denny Carmmasi
I was there! I still talk about how Angus ran around the entire stadium while playing a solo. Was an incredible day!
Me too dude or dudette! Best of times
I was there too. Year before Angus went through the crowd on top of Bon Scotts shoulders while soloing. They started at 11am.
Ted Nugent hit me in the head with a metal guitar pick I still have that guitar picks😊
I was there. Ted was a wild man. Swinging in on a rope. Throwing the fake rocks in the crowd. I think I went to 5 Days on the green total. Like $12 a ticket for 4-5 big time bands.
GIANTS!!!
FRANK AND TED, ARE MY GUITAR HEROES!!!
Frank is so insane. Saw him many times. Always a trip. God bless the man. Hope you feel better!
Is he sick ? Hope he's ok. Frank is a beast guitar player !!!
@@markusaurelius777 he has issues with his shoulder. And I’m not sure because I don’t know the man but I’m sure it’s hard to play like that. Maybe he’s just done? Only he knows the answer. If you look on Frank Marino site he announced he was done. Glad I saw him as many times as I did!
He has stated in a few interviews that his shoulder is fine. He hasn't disclosed the ailment as of yet.@@326vince
Loved day on the greens in Oakland bodabagas and Kessller
Was there for this one as well as many other Day on the Green concerts from 1976 to 1982.
Holy Shit…St. Paradise!!
That’s some rare footage, THANK YOU!!
🤘
My first concert, a 16th birthday present from my late big brother.
I was there, July 21, 1979! Even though it may not look like it, the show started early, I want to say sometime around 11am. It had rained so it was a bit overcast. A friend's mom dropped us off near the front gate at about 6am. We were 2nd row just left of the stage in front of Malcolm Young. After AC/DC played we went and found some seats on the lower deck for Aerosmith and Ted Nugent. They show AC/DC 2nd, but I'm positive they were 3rd after Frank Morino. I have pictures of AC/DC that a friend of mine took, I need to post those somewhere. It was awesome, I was 15 years old, it was a great time. I went on the go to some great concerts over the next 5 years. Classic bands.
We were there bright and early to see St. Paradise open.... great band !
Lucky SOB(:
I was 16 and it was my first concert.
Same age hon we were stupid brang hard in our socks can't remember the concert but knew it was great
Frank marino...oh little town of Bethlehem..with a floor full of the latest pedals
Frank ripped the place to pieces. So underrated today. But he was respected by his peers. They were jealous. At 22: he gets into Down, Down, Down. He is a little speedy here but still, fantastic. He opened with that 3/3/83 and man he was better. 2 bum notes in two hours. Bon AC/DC great but nobody captured youthful energy like Frank.
Frank ripped EVERY GOD DAMN PLACE HE EVER WENT to pieces.
I always "champion" the "underrated" guys, I love Wishbone Ash, Rory Gallagher, Steve Marriott, etc. but as time has gone by I've started to feel like Frank is probably the very MOST UNDERRATED cat in history.
I only saw him once (I was maybe 13/14) but I remember it like it was yesterday. It was STUNNING. Totally indelible memory.
One of the two most bludgeoning guitar performances I've EVER witnessed (the other being Rory Gallagher).
I was at this show. It was my first concert. I was 16 years old
I was there
Had no idea St Paradise were part of this show, nice bonus, released a very good album in 1979.
Would like to see their whole set!
DEREK!!🤘
Brendan Moylan was there, Jimmy Delosada drove, thanks, My wife, Jessica McDonald could not make it she was only 1. AC/DC killed it !!
Frank >
Sorry to see Bob Segar and Charlie Daniels circuit the fairggounds even ZZ Top. They are and always be legends. Just nice to even see them in a venue. They deserved so much better tho imo. I was privedged to see them play at concert in Oakland
I was there it was kind of chilly this day in Oakland
I was there at this show with my friend Brian. The Day On The Green was billed as MONSTERS OF ROCK, hence the Dinosaur backdrop. The reason the stadium is emptish when St. Paradise was playing was the weather. It RARELY rains in California in the summer, but that morning it did rain. Getting into the stadium was REALLY REALLY SLOW...and many stayed in the cars. We got there early in the morning and I remember taking forever to get inside (remember, this was pre-911 so no metal detectors or pat downs and we had simple paper tickets). When got in, we sat around home plate in the lower box. The stage was in Left/Center field for the Oakland A's. We barely saw St. Paradise.
Now AC/DC I barely knew them. I had definitely heard Long Way To The Top, but I didn't know anything about them really. Highway To Hell wasn't released yet. During The Rocker, Angus went out into the field through the crowd. Now I had NO IDEA at the time Wireless systems worked that far range. It took us quite a bit to "find" him and we were shocked he was on shoulders going through the infield. My main memory is the people running with Angus after he climbed over the left field wall to return to the stage. An AC/DC fan was born that day. Brian and I went to San Mateo to Banana Records at Hillsdale Mall a few days after the show and we bought EVERY AC/DC album they had. Now I'm "Malcolm" in an AC/DC tribute band, so I really became a big fan (Priest /DC).
I knew Frank Marino and Electric Reflections of War. He was great...but I think I only bought his live album.
Aerosmith I was RIGHT UP FRONT stage right. Aerosmith was sloppy (my memory) and they appeared hammered...probably were. I didn't care.
I can still remember clearly Bill Graham came out to introduce the "Chairman of the board", Ted Nugent and he came swinging out on a vine with loin cloth....we loved it.
Call me jealous!
That's what Ted was talking about when he came out. He didn't name Aerosmith but started rapping about cocaine and drugs. They sucked bad. I went up to 3rd deck and took a nap when they played. Aerosmith sucked. I always thought Ted was a coke head until I found out he never touched it. Dawned on me he was talking about them.
San Mateo in the house too!
Was there! Loved it when Ted came swinging out on a vine in a loin cloth!
@@laurapestoni3372 Nice! Yes, as a 17 yr old boy, I was like HELL YEAH.
Was there. Seems so much like a dream now
i was there ! 15 years old and an ounce of lumbo , my buddy was so stoned he was drooling all over himself haaa
My brother used himself as a battering ram. Got himself arrested. I tiptoed in and remember a little of the event but was 15 also and alone got thourly drunk and got a ride home from nice couple. Those were the days kids.
Whitford/st Holmes should do another album in 2024!!!!!!
I was there!
Incredible DOTG Monsters of Rock! I was there w my older brother. Frank played Jimi and transported all back ten years to Woodstock, everybody was Feelin' It🤘🏼. First and last time seeing Bon. My cousin seen AC/DC the yr before so he told us be prepared when Bon carries Angus thru the crowd, we were! Cameraman here didn't know where they were until Angus had scaled the outfield wall up to the bleachers.
Aerosmith sounded terrible, were completely shitfaced I learned yrs later.
The rad mad badass of RocknRoll, Ted 'motormouth' Nugent, was just that, loincloth and all.🦖
Damn, you were lucky to have been there!
wow
❤
Oakland, California at the old Raiders/As stadium on Hegenberger in 1979. Can we give some love to the brilliant Derek St. Holmes who did most of Ted's vocals, especially his best song Stranglehold??
Ted Nugent in his prime . Fantastic !
Frank, ripping everyone's face off!!
Frank Marino is just incredible! I first saw him when he was 17, playing Hendrix like no-one else at that time, on a Gibson SG!!! Aerosmith's sound is really sh#%$%?y just like when I saw them the year before...Trouble with their soundman? AC/DC and Ted Nugent really rock!
That wasn't the sound man. They were just a sloppy live band.
@@cbh440 Sadly, I have to agree...They were so high on cocaine they couldn't play the songs tight together....
I was at this show. Frank Marino and Mahagony Rush stole the show from everyone else there.
I'm one jealous metalhead!
@@themightydecibel-heavymeta7130 Day On the Green festivals in the Oakland Coliseum we're awesome. Saw Judas Priest, Rick Derringer and Led Zeppelin two years earlier in the same stadium.
@@bobhope3716 Okay, now you're just showing off!
@@themightydecibel-heavymeta7130 Yes ! Saw Rush 18 times !
@@bobhope3716 Sigh.
Didnt know St.Paradise opened up. Former vocalist/guitar and bassist (Derek St. Holmes/Rob Grange) from Ted Nugents previous band. On the same bill with Ted and his new band...a coincidence? Great lineup at this festival. 1979 was my first year going to concerts.
Was there, at least I think I was there, a little high ... Back in the day. Godzilla.
Not a bad lineup 😇🤘.
I Laugh When People Say Bon Scott Era or Brian Johnson Era ,,Without Malcolm ACDCWould Never Have Happened He's There Very Reason They Existed His Riffs His Knowing How To Run A Band Facts RIP Malcolm
Every band was there to make a impression ( money in future)
I like the bon scott ac/dc so much better than the brian johnson era
There is only ONE AC⚡️DC front man!🤘
RIP Jimmy Ayoub drummer of Mahogany Rush !
First band is St.Paradise
Hard to believe Ted got bigger than Aerosmith but he did for about a year.
Great show! Had to go when Nugent opened..Over exhausted and other things!🤪 AC/DC & Marino stole the show! Could have done without Aeroschmights! Thanks Mighty Decibel for the share..
Long day for Derek 👌
16:20
AC/DC destroying everyone else.
No.
@@user-ij3kv2lc5zYes 👍🎆🥳
Not hardly
And yet they were second on which means they weren't the headliner acts .
@@peteloomis8456 Bon Scott AC/DC wasn't huge in America. But that doesn't mean they weren't the best act on the bill
Cheap trick was good
The day Joe Perry left Aerosmith
That was a week after this concert, but yep, he might as well could have left that night, Aerosmith's fate was sealed.
Tyler couldn’t keep his shit together for such a big show!🤦♂️
Frank Marino step above the rest.
Dude should be a millionaire!🎸
I wonder if all these people realized what sort of legends appeared before them...the likes of Bon Scott for instance, and that music was only gonna get poorer and poorer the older they would become...I would give until early 90s before the talent washed off...
I was there. I was in awe!
We were aware they were big time bands and we were big fans. Had most of their records back then.
Got an invite to go see Sammy Hagar in Cabo by brother in law he friends with him but never liked the guy not personal but never liked his style.
Nugent writes the lamest songs ever. Not much of a guitar player either. ACDC smoked everybody this day.
He's a Guitar master Not the pop rock stuff you like.
I was there! Rock at 11 am! I was confused Ted's band played first without ted, then someone told me Ted fired his whole band. Frank played next and killed it, then it rained and AC/DC came out and the rain stopped and the sun came out, and they destroyed the place, I bought every album they ever did after this. Aerosmith came out sloppy and fun ked up on coke, the Ted came out and without Derrick on vocals it took three quarters of his set out and gave us a half hour of wango tango and the other songs Ted sings. It was pretty bad. But seeing acdc was all worth it! I was 15.....
I think it was in 1978 at Giant Stadium in East Rutherford N.J. I saw in this order: Frank Marino & Maghoney Rush (Very good), Journey (good), Ted Nugent with Derrick St. Holmes (Excellent), Aero smith (SUCKED). Promised myself never to see them again! It was during the Draw the Line Tour I remember because I bought the t-shirt which was the cover of that album. The shirt also proved to be a ripoff just like their terrible performance. The shirt stretched beyond belief. Couldn't even wear it afterwards! Perry's guitar along with Tyler forgetting the lyrics must have been to them being too doped up.
Most of it was pretty bad, except AC/DC. Angus Young's intonation perfect as always. The band is obviously well rehearsed. The others were terrible by comparison
