KQ4's
first free concert.
Brown Sugar plays at Mt. Tabor, May 20, 1973.
The park held 1,500 - Portland police said 5,000 were
jammed in the
park and another 5,000 were turned away. The cops
dispatched
50 units to the scene and called it "the biggest traffic jam in
Portland history." There were no incidents! |

KQ4 and Rainier Beer
concert at Delta Park, July 4, 1973. |

The KQ4 Hot Air
Balloon at the July 4, 1973 concert at Delta Park.
Since it was a "hot air" balloon some on the staff wanted to rename
it the
"Walter J. M. Kraus" balloon, in honor of the owner. That was
never said to his face. |

Jack Malone, General
Manager,
in "concert manager" mode. |
WOW! ZZ Top and
Eric Burdon for Just $4.50.
Overtime at the Python Ballroom.
NOTE from J.R. Miller in December 2007...
The place really is the "Pythian Ballroom" so they either were
being funny or were drug-addled at the time
they designed the handbill!
The concert that NEVER happened.
We all remember the planning
and the handbill but can't remember why it never came off.
NOTE From J.R. Miller in December of
2007...Regarding
Summer Festival 73, ("The concert that NEVER happened.
We all remember the planning and the handbill but can't remember
why it never came off."), as the following link shows, the concert
DID happen!!! I know we weren't there, and we don't remember it,
but it happened! Maybe KQ4 dropped-out?

The Sons of Champlin at "D Street".
Notice the spelling error.
The name was NOT "Chaplin" but Champlin. (Sorry, this
image is as large as it gets.)
Yes, we actually put on a concert at the
Oregon State Penitentiary.
