I would not call it a festival as it was one of Richard Blade's one night compilation concerts at the MicroSoft in DTLA, but among the bands playing were Wang Chung, Flock of Seagulls, MC Hammer, Josie Cotton, Violent Femmes, Dramarama, Big Country (obviously without the lead singer who has passed, and China Crisis. Heaven 17 was supposed to play as well (a personal favorite of mine), but something happened and they had to cancel.

it was 1967, I wa 14 years old. I had to beg my parents to go and see three groups out of town on a school night. My best friend’s Dad, said he would go with us and drive. He talked to my folks and they agreed to let me go. When we arrived, Marge’e‘s Dad dropped us off and he went to the driive in theater to see “Valley of the Dolls!” The opening act was Strawberry Alarm Clock, then Buffalo Sprngfield and then the main group was The Original Beach Boys!! My very first concert was awesome!
