Blimp Time-Hop: The First Bob Seger Concert At The Civic Center
Stranger in Town had only been out for just over a week.
Major classics like Hollywood Nights and Old Time Rock N’ Roll were brand-spankin new songs on the set-list.
This was his second studio album with the Silver Bullet Band.
According to the RIAA, it went platinum within a month of it being released. That’s ONE MILLION copies sold inside just 30 days…unbelievable!
So, it’s really no surprise that Blimpsters sold-out the CCCC for his first appearance there on May 17, 1978. It was surely had to be a night of rock-n-roll ecstasy that Portland, Maine will never forget.
