Thanks Hewitt! Update!
ReplyDeleteSteppenwolf played a concert in Edmonton, Alberta in 70,71 at the Edmonton Gardens. I'm a little fuzzy on the date but I was present. Great concert. I'd love to see some of it on youtube, but I can't find any postings of it.
ReplyDeleteThe concert listed as Jul 2, or Aug ? '68 in Denver, Co. was held at the old Denver University football stadium. I'm thinking the show was in August..... have been searching off and on for months and can't find a specific date. The local concert posters called it the "mini-Monterrey Pop Festival". Steppenwolf was the headliner, with local Denver band the Conel Implosion, Texas-based Fever Tree, and a fairly unknown band from Phoenix called Alice Cooper (long before the guillotine)completing the line up. Fever Tree was GREAT! Alice ran a 440 around the track during the band's final song, and Steppenwolf had their set cut short due to curfew. I was a sophomore in high school when I went to this show. What a super way for a 16 year old to spend an evening.
ReplyDeleteThanks John! Let me know if you find the exact date of the gig!
DeleteCheers,
Bruno
It took me a lot of searching the internet but I found the concert I went to: Steppenwolf at the Miami Marine Stadium, May 30-31 1968. Source - Billboard May 18, 1968. Probably the first "rock" concert I ever attended. I was a sophomore in high school.

Does anyone know of a concert that Steppenwolf played in Jackson, Mississippi in either 1969 or 1970?
ReplyDeleteWould really appreciate an exact date. Thanks
They played Birmingham, Alabama in early 1976.
ReplyDeleteThanks Debra, I hope to find the exact venue and date for this gig.....
DeleteI remember seeing them in Monroe, La. At the Monroe Convention Center around the same time.
DeleteI saw john kay and Steppenwolf in Knoxville Tenn in 1987 and I believe it was at the state fair or the worlds fair site.......I still have the tour shirt but no ticket stub.
ReplyDeleteDo you know the site/date of the show? I'm cataloging my concert history on setlist.fm and this was my "first" concert since my mom was pregnant at this show. Thanks!

DeleteSteppenwolf was the headliner in a concert with Moby Grape and the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band at Citrus Community College football stadium in Azusa, CA, probably around 1968 since all these groups had popular singles playing on the FM stations in Los Angeles at the time.
ReplyDeleteif you find the exact date let me know! thanks!
DeleteDidn't Steppenwolf play a concert in San Antonio with the Byrds in 1969 or 1970?
ReplyDeleteyou're right....July 4, 1969 at the HemisFair Arena. I have this gig in my archive, I just forget to added it here, thanks!
DeleteCheers,
Bruno
Not sure of the exact year but they played at the old Warwick Musical Theater in Warwick, Rhode Island. Maybe 1999 or 2000 ? Outdoor gig sponsoerd by a radio station. Opening act was John Cafferty & Beaver Brown band.
ReplyDeleteKenny,
DeleteThe exact date was June 6, 1999
I saw John Kay with Steppenwolf in 1975 at Pauley Pavilion, UCLA around mid year...
ReplyDeletethanks man, added the gig. I wish we can find the exact date....
DeleteHi - Saw Steppenwolf as headliner along with Ten Wheel Drive featuring Genya Ravan in Charleston, WV on 2/6/70. Saw Steppenwolf again in April, 1970 at Freedom Hall, Louisville, KY.
ReplyDeletethanks man!
DeleteI don't have exact dates except for one: The first time I saw John Kay and Steppenwolf was in 1981 in Raleigh, NC in "the subway" which was an below ground complex of nightclub and bars in the Cameron Village section of Raleigh. I also saw John Kay & Steppenwolf again in the Spring of 1982 at another nightclub location in Raleigh, NC. In 1983 or 1984 I saw John Kay and Steppenwolf in a nightclub in Goldsboro, NC. And finally- this has an exact date: On December 31, 1999 - January 1, 2000, I saw John Kay & Steppenwolf at the New Years Eve Millenium Concert in Downtown Phoenix, AZ with a series of other bands.
ReplyDeleteThanks Merman! I will try to find the exact dates of those gigs and I'll give you the credit for the help!
DeleteCheers,
Bruno
I recall Steppenwolf at Chicago's Auditorium Theater in '71, give or take a year. Maybe right before or after the 2/1/71 show at Univ of Illinois... I'm pretty sure it wasn't at the Coliseum (3/71 show) - I'd been to hockey games there.
ReplyDeleteThanks Barry, hope to find the exact date of this gig one day!
DeleteCheers,
Bruno
Steppenwolf played the Sioux City, Iowa Auditorium in 1977 & S. Sioux City, Neb. @ The Marina Aug 1982. Played Des Moines Area Spring 1983. The Iowa State Fair in Des Moines, Iowa Aug 1996 for 3 nights. They are one of my favorite bands of all time ... RLS

DeleteSteppenwolf was at the Park Center in Charlotte, NC in 1970 or 1971, and at Carowinds in NC in 1995 with Jefferson Starship. I can't find anything on either one of those concerts, but I was at both of them. Have anything on these? Thx!
ReplyDeleteI saw what I now realize was one of the "unofficial" Steppenwolf incarnations (or as I called them after the show, One Old Guy and a Bunch of Young Kids) at a club called The Church Key in Madison, Wisconsin. It was my freshman year of college, so late 1977 or early 1978. At the time I would've sworn Old Guy was Goldy McJohn. Now that I know a little more of the history of Steppenwolf I am no longer sure *who* I saw.
ReplyDeleteSaw the Asbury Park show July 12, 1969 (MAN opened). Clear memory (surprising!) of stage set-up, etc. I'll write something up and post. I bought the souvenir book but cut it up to add to my bedroom wall montage along with one from the same venue (Convention Hall) from the Doors, Led Zep(Joe Cocker w/ Grease Band opened) Ten Years After, Iron Butterfly...in hindsight..maybe not so smart! :)
ReplyDeleteThe information you have posted is very useful. The sites you have referred was good. Thanks for sharing...

My present wife and I saw steppenwolf in Warwick at the Musical Theatre. It was indoors. We started dating in June 1986 and had a son in 1990. The concert was sometime in between unless I'm crazy??? Help me
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure I saw Steppenwolf at a place called The Mansion, Riverton, Il sometime between 1990 and 1991. I cant remember who the other band was but it was a awesome night. I wish I could remember.
ReplyDeleteSaw the Wolf at the Oak Brook Forum in Oak Brook IL on October 6th, 1974. Opening acts were Canned Heat and a relatively new Canadian Band called Rush. Lineup: Kay, Edmonton, McJohn, Biondo and Cochran. Saw them again shortly thereafter at The Arie Crown Theater in Chicago. Opening act at that show was Trapeze.
ReplyDeletethanks man!
DeleteI saw Steppenwolf at the Boston Arena 68 or 69. The headliner was The Crazy World of Aurthur Brown, Steppenwolf and Jesse Colin Young to start. Can't find any mention of the show anywhere.
ReplyDeleteyou are right Jeff, it was the second annual Boston Rock Festival and they played on April 5, 1969. BTW, Jesse Colin Young of course you mean The Youngbloods
DeleteThey played at Riverfront Park in Little Rock, AR on Sept 4, 1992 with Edgar Winters Band and 2 other acts. I would love to remember the other two acts. I think Johnny Winters may be one? A friend of mine suggests Blackfoot may be another? But that was a long time ago and we may have been indulging and the smoke cloud from the bikers in the orchestra pit was prodigious
ReplyDelete@D Evans -- There's a used record store in Little Rock called Been Around Records & CDs. This is just a wild guess, but I wouldn't be shocked if the owner was at that show and might remember who opened. They have a bunch of Johnny Winters records, so the owner may be a fan. You might consider calling them and asking. Good luck!

ReplyDeleteI saw Steppenwolf in 1968 or 1969 at Municipal Auditorium, Birmingham Alabama. Tony Joe White opened for them. It was my first concert.
ReplyDeleteMy very first concert was Steppenwolf in Knoxville, Tennessee at the Knoxville Civic Coliseum and it was in the early 70’s. Anyone know the exact date?
ReplyDeleteMy young friends and I saw Steppenwolf at Will Rogers Auditorium in Fort Worth Texas sometime between September 1966 and May 1970, and we have tried unsuccessfully to find the exact date of the show we attended — there's a poster floating around advertising a show of their's on April 19th but gives no year and have seen it advertised as from 1967, 1968, and 1969 as well, but nothing definitive — there is also a February 1970 show advertised (see this blog) as at Will Rogers yet ticket stubs for that show online claim it was at Panther Hall in Fort Worth (a completely different venue) — of course the show we attended could have been even different from the April 19 or February 20 dates, but it was definitely at Will Rogers and It was definitely between the dates I mentioned above — any help identifying this show greatly appreciated (PS: I would have posted under my google account but for some reason it would let me make that selection) — Thanks in advance!
