I would have loved to be there. My introduction to ELP came in college. I liked synthesizer music, and a friend told me about a band that I had never heard of that made heavy use of synths: ELP. I drove down to my local Sam Goody and, having no idea what to buy, settled on Trilogy (vinyl, of course). I was immediately hooked.
I've only seen the band live once: the Works tour at Madison Square Garden in the mid 70s.
