Very first concert I ever went to was Eric Clapton and Muddy Waters at the Knoxville Civic Coliseum in 1978. Good times!

The Garden probably beat the crap out of Knoxville, concert wise.

All things are relative; however, my experience with MSG was not good.

I walked many blocks across Manhattan in the rain as I was too cheap to take a cab. Once arriving at the Garden the sign said "Sold Out".

Proceeding to the box office I inquired in my best Southern English if any tickets were still available. She, feeling sorry for me, said yes but they were not very good seats. I said I'll take one.

Having a couple of hours to kill, I began looking for a place to have some food and a couple of beers. Total failure as every establishment near the venue was packed.

Returned to Madison Square Garden where I purchased a beer for $12 and popcorn for $10.

I then trekked to my seat in the rafters behind stage.

She was right . . . they were not very good seats.
