Today’s Blimp Time-Hop: Seger Live in Maine

Happy Birthday to singer-songwriter and all-around working man's rock star, Bob Seger! The legend turned 73 over the weekend. He was born Robert Clark Seger in Lincoln Park, Michigan on May 6,1945. Bob's music career started in the early 60s as a successful local artist in Detroit.

Bob Seger has played Maine 3 times. The first appearance was as The Bob Seger System in 1970 at the Portland Expo.

The second time was 10 years later with The Silver Bullet Band on the Against the Wind tour at the Cumberland County Civic Center. He last Maine appearance was on the Bangor's Waterfront in 2014 with the mighty J.Geils Band opening.

Check out this rarity! It's Bob Seger at the Portland Expo nearly 48 years ago. This how they opened the show with Mongrel. What a gem!
