I saw Linda Ronstadt in concert at the Asheville Civic Center in Asheville, NC during the summer of either 1975 or 1976. I am trying to find out the exact date of the concert but I can't find anything online to support that she even did a concert there during that period. The Bellamy Brothers were supposed to be the warmup act but for some reason they did not show. Andrew Gold, who was part of her band, ended up being the opening act for the concert. Does anyone know the date for this concert (which was fantastic and one of the best performances I have ever seen)?
