Those memorable concerts

Most interesting concert moment: Alexander Hall, probably 1972: John McLaughlin and the Mahavishnu Orchestra … with opening act John Prine! Who put this one together? After several songs by Prine, someone in the restless crowd awaiting the main act yelled, “Get off the stage.” Prine stepped back for a moment, then walked up to the mike and said: “The next song’s called . . . ‘Get Off the Stage’!” He won them over.
