1. 1st heard a Lightfoot song?

I'm sure I was vaguely aware of IYCRMM when it was big, and I saw Marty Robbins in concert, so I'm sure I heard ROD. But really it was when I stumbled on my brother's copies of Sundown, Don Quixote, and Lightfoot! I wore them out, then went out and bought Summertime Dream (it came out a few months after I first laid hands on the other albums).

First album: Summertime Dream...then it was a quest to go to all record stores in a large radius to get all old albums...took a few years, but I got 'em.

First concert: Nashville, TPAC auditorium 1982, then the next night in Louisville, KY at Majestic Theater. Then 1989 in Ft. Worth at Billy Bob's.
