They played "Here comes the Sun' by the Beatles Jessie Colin Young played around 2:00 pm He did a short set about 1/2 hour. Stage was then set up for Santan. His set as about an hour or so long. Then The Band came out they had a tight set playing around a hour and a half. Around 7;00 Crosby, Stills , Nash and Young came out. They played around two hours. I remeber Richard Nixon just resign, The encore was Neil Young "Ohio". It was one of the best concert. Tickets $10.00 waht a deal for all that great music.

Blue Oyster Cult/Uriah Heep 1976 Cleveland Concert Poster
In what was billed as a Heavy Metal New Years, Blue Oyster Cult headlined on December 31, 1976 at the Richfield Coliseum. Also on the bill was Uriah Heep and opening act Point Blank.
The Richfield Coliseum was an arena located in Richfield Township located roughly halfway between Cleveland and Akron Ohio. It hosted many concerts, with its first event being a concert by Frank Sinatra in 1974 and the last being a concert by Roger Daltry in 1994, which was also the last official event at the arena.
Each week we feature a new poster as the Poster Of The Week and it will be on sale for only $10.00
