Concerts

33 years ago today, Aerosmith rocked a sold out show at the Civic Center. This was a comeback that assured their hardcore fans that the real thing remained intact and the heart was still beating loudly.

Band will play nine dates at Caesars Palace in October.

The show on April 15, 1982 at the Civic Center was sold-out! Sting came back a few more times but this was the only Portland appearance ever by the Police.

With WBLM spinning the ‘new’ tracks, My Life and Big Shot as well as deeper cuts like Stiletto and Zanzibar, the CCCC was packed to capacity on April 13, 1979 for the Piano Man and his band.

With a giant pot leaf banner hanging proudly behind them, they opened with a ferocious No Speak No Slave and ended the night with the big new song of moment, Remedy. We were levitating the whole time!

39 years ago this week, WBLM welcomed back ZZ Top to the Civic Center on April 6, 1980. It was 3 years after they were the very first event and very first rock concert in the new building.

Band will spend two months playing dates across the U.S. in celebration of its golden anniversary.

Band lines up date and location of first show of the year.

Former Guns N' Roses member Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal will also be part of the multi-act North American summer shows.

Band will play classic 1976 LP in its entirety at two shows.
