Wayne has it that that concert was on July 20th,1976 but unfortunately there is no review or setlist to prove that your memory is fantastic and accurate.If you went does your memory recall that ED and JFC were there?
inspired to google on
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/England...ohn_Ford_Coley
I read
"Dan Seals, the brother of Jim Seals of equally successful 1970s soft-rock duo Seals & Crofts"
and:-
"Seals' childhood nickname was "England Dan" because he was a huge fan of the Beatles. John Colley's last name was shortened to "Coley" for ease of pronunciation; "Ford" was added as his middle name for flow purposes, thus England Dan and John Ford Coley"
and I had always wondered what the significence of the "England" was
