Marc Honan, the Buffalo Bills Chief Marketing officer was just on the air with the Bulldog. He says they are in discussions with Live Nation and they will be bringing back concerts to the Ralph in 2015. He mentioned it would likely be Country Acts.

Fingers crossed for beiber fever

 

I wonder if Jan Ban Bovi would be interested

It's possible. Maybe he could get the band Toronto back together to be the opening act. That would be a huge draw.

The last concert I saw at there was Guns n Roses & Metallica. We got there 5-6 hours early and tailgated like it was a Bills game.

I was at that concert. I remember the opening act, Faith No More, got booed and started saying disparaging things about Buffalo, and Slash broke a string during (I think) Sweet Child O' Mine, kept playing and after a few off-tune notes Axl stopped the song and said "we're going to start over. No wonder everyone thinks we're a joke" or something to that effect. Great show otherwise.

I was at a Rolling Stones all day concert in July 1978 with some great other bands. By the time the Stones played everybody was wasted and they sucked (from what I remember) then a late afternoon storm blew in and they halted...peeps got pissed and started throwing fireworks at the stage. Fortunately we had a friend with a van that didn't drink and he herded us out of the place and safely back to Elmira. Anybody out there that was there???

The Dead was always good at Rich Stadium.

 

June 2, 1992: I was 10 and wanted to go to this concert. To this day, I remember people talk about past concerts and how great they were. Much respect, I might fly out to see one in 2015!

Awesome if jbj came and got booed out of sight.

I'd go just to boo him. Yes I realize that makes him more money but whatever.
