Blimp Time-Hop: Sammy Hagar Rocks Portland Live With VOA In 1985
Sammy Hagar played his first Portland headlining show at the
Civic Center. He d been here twice previously. The first show was opening for Boston in 1978. the second appearance was as the warm-up for ZZ Top in 1983 (my first concert evah! BTW) Sammy did more than just warm up the crowd that night, he melted every single face.
On April 7, 1985, the Red Rocker returned to Portland on the
VOA tour with Dokken opening. The
VOA album eventually went platinum and features his signature song,
I Can’t Drive 55.
The show fell on a Sunday. We bet some Blimpsters had a rough first day back to work or school after being up late partying with Sammy. Looks like it was well worth it, though. Check out what he played.
