Looking for info on Cash tour
September 21, 2007 9:19 AM Subscribe
Please help me find info on Johnny Cash tour dates from the 1970s.
My first live concert experience was seeing Johnny Cash in Boston in the 1970s. I was under 10 or 11 years old at the time and although I remember sights and sounds and loving the show, I am fuzzy on the details. I would like to find out 1) what the date might have been and 2) any details about that tour. My dad's only records were Johnny Cash (mom's were ther Ray Conniff Singers) and it was the only musical event I recall seeing as a child.
I've looked around for old tour itineraries online and in the backs of a couple bios at the bookstore with no luck. It would be very meaningful to me to try and track down a tour program or any recordings/TV appearances Cash did during the tour.
Things I kind of remember:
June Carter was there, and I think the billing was close to "Johnny Cash with June Carter Cash and the Carter Family".
Re: the venue, I have a feeling it was at Symphony Hall or somewhere near that area down by Berklee, but that seems weird. There was table seating though and it was very velvety. I do not think the stage was elevated very high.
It would have been between 1973 and 78.
If anybody knows of a source online or off regarding Cash mid 70s tours that have dates/cities/venues it sure would be appreciated. I've Googled it to death with no luck.
