I know I had them before Oct '79, as the first time I saw GKB was in the back yard of a fraternity in Berkeley. I took the LPs to a show, and somehow got into the house, and found where the band was dressing (or whatever...) passed them through the door and they came back autographed. I know it was October, as Greg stuck his head out the window of the frat house and informed the crowd that Pittsburgh beat Baltimore in the series game that night (which I am sure did not please Greg). Oh yeah, and Huey Lewis and the American Express opened for GKB that night. Looking forward to Saturday.

I like going to your concerts, including the Kihncert.But my favorite concerts were The Santa Cruz Boardwalk Friday night concerts on the beach. I am looking forward to the Catalyst GKB reunion show, and hopefully meet the original GKB musicians face to face. It's going to be a fun gig! I haven't bought “Best Of Beserkley" CD yet, so it would be nice to get an autographed copy at the Catalyst.I listen to your morning show faithfully every week. ~RD My first GKB album was “True Kihnfessions”.

Greg Kihn with his Rickenbacker 12 string, a great band and excellent songs made me an instant fan. I bought the first Greg Kihn record, told my friends and we became regulars at all their shows.My buddy bought a Rickenbacker 12 string and we started learning Greg Kihn songs in our garage band. I am really looking forward to this show. Back in the 70′s I went to a show at the Keystone Berkeley not knowing what to expect.

Also met the band during a RockihnRoll era album signing at the old Wherehouse (or was it Record Factory) in San Mateo and still have that album framed on my wall autographed by the original 4....

I think he use to start his set by yelling LETS ROCK THIS HOUSE and then break into "For You". The first album I got was "Greg Kihn". My Favorite song on the album was "Any Other Woman".
