The Atlanta mystery
Maybe you folks can help.
Back in November 1973, I saw The Who for the first time at The Omni in
Atlanta. Being young and careless, I misplaced the ticket stub. When
I recently tried to find the date for the concert I looked it up in
both Ed Hanel's book and The Hypertext Who, only to find it wasn't
listed. So this weekend I went to the library and looked it up in the
newspaper. They gave the date as Tuesday 11/27/73. When I got home,
however, I noticed that both Hanel and Hypertext Who list The Who as
playing at the Los Angeles Forum on that date.
So what is the correct date? I'm pretty sure about the newspaper date
and, with a five hour jet trip between them, let's assume they
couldn't play both in one day. If anyone can confirm either date for
me, I'd certainly appreciate it.
P.S. I also found during my research that The Who played at Atlanta's
Municipal Auditorium on 11/23/71, another date not listed in either of
the above sources.
