    I was there!!! All of the sudden it became a kaleidoscope of shoes being thrown up on the stage Ronnie is right Mick said We’ll have all your shoes... It’s amazing they didn’t even remember what song it was. Of course it was “beast of burden” it was right after with no shoes on my feet…

    Oh wow, this is amazing. I was there as well. What a magnificent concert. Couldn't part with my Rainbow sandals, but screamed and danced in ecstasy. I didn't get the shoe thing at the moment, perhaps because first a joint was lobbed onto stage, which became many. Then the shoes. It was a magically memorable day. Epic show. At Anaheim Stadium, in 1978? Thank you, Glenn Schneider, for even having it and sharing it with us. And thank you to MrAdman1957 for being there for everyone. Bravo!

    I was there both days! I’ll never forget it because it was during beast of burden the intro and a few people through their sandals up and then Mick said “all right then well I have everybody’s shoes” then it was a kaleidoscope of shoes being thrown from all directions from the front of the stage onto the top of the stage and Mick was dancing around and dodging the shoes that were being thrown on stage there must’ve been about 300 pairs of shoes that got thrown up there. I’ll never forget it it was a great day.

      @@paulbuchanan4770 Well it's possible. I was pretty much expecting that you would say that you didn't recall the shoes being thrown.
      I was there when I was 18yrs old and I don't remember the shoe incident at all. Maybe I just thought it was no big deal and therefore it didn't register with me as something to remember. I remember the crowd in front of the stage surging forward and how scary it seemed to be in that. It gave me some moments of panic as the sense of being crushed by a surge of people grew stronger. I also remember leaving the concert and coming out to find my car towed away! Along with a whole bunch of other concert goers. People were ticked off! It was a big parking lot with a couple of little hardly noticeable knee high signs that said "No parking" and no one saw the signs until after all the cars were towed away. The tow truck driver was making trips back and forth from that spot to the tow yard taking people one by one to get there cars. "That will be $180 please." It was a slow process. People would pelt the tow truck with rocks as it was driving by. As I was being taken to get my car... It was a trip (and kind of scary) to hear the sound of rocks bouncing off of the tow truck as we were driving along. Those are my main memories about that concert.

    I remember the shoes started to fly during Beast of Burden, and the line “I got no shoes on my feet” . It’s funny that MJ still doesn’t know why it happened. My first Stones show, I was underwhelmed. Luckily the other times I’ve seen them, they lived up to the greatest rock n roll band in the world moniker!

    I was there, about 20 feet from the barrier in front of the stage. A freaking cowboy boot landed on my right shoulder, I think it was snakeskin. I wasn't going to throw my own shoes, I'd only bought them a couple of days before the concert, but I thought that I could easily land this stupid boot right in front Mick. So reared back and threw it with all my strength and hit a guy in the back of the head about six feet in front of me. Now I'm 6'2" but this guy and his friends were about 6'4" and 6'5". I quickly turned to my girlfriend and said, "Do you want a better view, get on my shoulders?" She was said, "Sure" and I lifted her up as fast as I could. The guy I hit had staggered forward a couple of steps and I think he was somewhat dazed, so it took him a while before he picked up the boot and then turned around looking for the person who had thrown it. Man did he look pissed, but he didn't look at me, just at every one around me. Fortunately, everyone around us was looking at the spectacle of all these shoes flying around and no one rat'd me out.
    After my girlfriend came back to the ground, a song or two later, I deliberately moved us away from that guy, but I caught a glimpse of him after the concert was over and the crowd was clearing out to the parking lot. He was still holding on to the boot. I guess he decided to keep it as a souvenir.

    OMG, I started this 😱 😂
    I was 16. A bunch of us camped in the parking lot, slept on the sidewalk to get in the minute the gates opened & partied our asses off in the burning sun because OMG I'M SEEING THE ROLLING STONES!
    The Stones came out & the stage got rushed. I was up against the fence, literally getting crushed. My flip flop fell off in the crowd when Security pulled me up & over. When I landed I tossed the other (now useless) shoe straight up & I guess it made it onstage. 😂 I didn't know all the rest even happened until I was reunited with my tribe hours later!
    My experience that day would've probably been much more traumatic if I wasn't 16, invincible & high as a kite 😜
    (To this day I panic in crowds, though. I avoid them like the plague.)

    I was there. On the way in the venue some guy showed me a pint bottle of booze and said "I'm going to throw this at Jagger". A couple hours later inside, while the shoes were flying, I saw Jagger (luckily) dodge the aforementioned pint bottle heading straight for his head, at which point he said "No bottles please". Great show!

      @@nomorebushz I was actually at that concert. I don't remember the shoes incident. In these days where many people in the world are holding their breath that nobody makes an unexpected miscalculation that leads us into nuclear war I take THE BELOW INFORMATION seriously so what that means is that long ago I learned that Jesus Christ is not a swear word. Thank you Jesus Christ that I don't have to say "I dunno" when asked if God exists. I pray that my friend Jeff is enabled to make the same discovery.
      And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of Grace and Truth. (John 1:14)
      Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in Heaven and on earth has been given to me." (Matthew 28:18)
      One lady who had a supernatural encounter with Jesus said "He doesn't look meek or mild.
      He looks like a King who is ready to rule."
      I heard another guy who had a supernatural encounter with Jesus say
      "Rays of Glory
      Rays of AWESOMENESS
      Rays of Purity
      Rays Majesty
      Rays of Holiness...
      is booming off of this Person."
      Of course let's also not forget about the only photograph that we have of Jesus that's in the Bible. Revelation ch 1.
      1. His Eyes were _like a flame of fire._
      2. His Voice was like the roar of many waters.
      3. From His mouth came a two-edged sword.
      4. His Face was shining like the sun in full strength.
      Satan's desire is to Deceive people into believing the idea that "When you die you die. The show is over and everything
      goes *BLACK* and that's it." Rather than sucking up that lie like a sponge there is always the invitation for a person to embrace
      the below prayer:
      Dear God, Thank You that You Love me. You Love me with an Astonishing
      *Love,* a Love that is _beyond my wildest imagining._ Thank You that
      You have for me an Amazing Super Future of spectacular Joy, spectacular
      Gladness, spectacular Health, Happy Surprises and *"Love* ...beyond what
      words can even explain." Thank You that You don't want me to feel like
      You are some unconcerned and remote spectator who is a billion miles
      away from me... no instead of that what You want is to be my best
      Friend. You know all of my life experiences and You know me better than
      anyone else. You want me to have and enjoy Sweet times of having a joyful sense of
      Your nearness. Thank You that what You want is for me to talk to You
      often and Your attitude towards me is one where with Love You say to me
      "you can talk to Me anytime." Thank You that You want to give me Higher
      levels of Love, joy, Peace and glad wonder than I have ever known before
      even in this world which isn't the Disneyland, it's just the temporary
      road to the Disneyland. The temporary road to the Amazing Wonderfulness
      and perpetual Bliss in the Eternal Glory which You call me to.
      “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God
