The 1978 show was held at the New York Coliseum on Columbus Circle.

There was a massive blizzard that started before the beginning of the show and lasted for the whole time. There was about 2 feet of snow on the ground.

I remember walking down the middle of 7th Ave.? all the way to Madison Square Garden. There was no traffic and none of the surface public transportation were running...
