Summer Sunday concert, 1981

The Summer Sunday concert series ran for a few years in the early eighties. Empire Stadium in Vancouver hosted at least one of these concerts.

One fine summer Sunday in 1981, Empire Stadium was abuzz with activity. A Skydiving team flew in and landed on the field amongst the crowd.

The opening band was a local group of people, and called themselves Rocket. (I don't know if they ever even released an album.)

Bryan Adams played a set, including songs off of his first two albums. Blue Oyster Cult played a number of their best tunes, including Godzilla (he came storming in from Seattle! LOL). Ted Nugent Wango'd his Tango. And, closing the show was The phenomenal sisters from Seattle, Heart.
