I was at this show too. Yep, Front Row Theater. It is gone now. I was looking all over the internet trying to find out when it was. I'm not positive of the year either. Jimmy walked down my row to get to the stage & I had a pregnant woman next to me so I didn't want to reach over to give him a five.CindaBee wrote:OH THANK YOU!

I SWEAR I remember seeing him in a show there, maybe the 80's? If I recall, he was going through some legal troubles with God's Own Drunk. Or did all that rum in the 80's warp my brain?
We were there too! The Front Row Theather! In Highland Heights, Ohio!
It was February and it rained!!!!! Jimmy came out in a Yellow Rain Slicker
and it was just the "Beach Band" as they call it today! 1980 or 81!
So if it was the Rum warping brains, It warped Judy and mine tooo!
I do remember the rain & the Yellow slicker. I also remember it was just Jimmy, Micheal Utley & I believe Sam Clayton. Someone put a bottle of rum on the stage for him & he took that. I also remember he had a girl from the audience come up on stage & play guitar for one song with them. Yes he was going through the legal issues with God's Own Drunk, but I believe he showed the Lawyer's phone # to the crowd & then played it anyway.
I see this was posted quite awhile ago. Hopefully you get it.
