King Crimson/Stray Cats Dr. Pepper Concert/Pier 84 Monday, August 2, 1982

In the summer of 1982, I had just recently graduated from Queens College with a degree in English and a minor in Economics with Saint John’s University School of Law waiting for me on the other side. On August 2nd, we went to the Dr. Pepper Concert Series at Pier 84 on the west side of Manhattan to catch a bit of an odd double bill with the rockabilly Stray Cats opening for progressive rock pioneers King Crimson. While I have no particular recollection of this night under the stars, I am sure it was a night to remember for some in the audience.
