In line to see Tom Jones I talked to an older gentleman who said he was there because his wife liked Tom Jones but he preferred Sergio Franchi. This was at the Warwick Musical Theater in Warwick, Rhode Island.

Gerry from Miami:

Got to see Marshall Crenshaw at Magic Mountain in Southern California after he had just released his first album, featuring "Someday, Someway." But Robert Gordon does a fine job with the song as well. BTW, the master of ceremonies at the Crenshaw concert was a fairly portly Jerry Mathers, AKA "the Beaver!" 1980 or 1981, I think.
