April 1975. 37 years

I know it's been a while but this is cropping up again on the Status Quo message board. thanks all for your replies, but perhaps I was wrong all along. Maybe it was 11 April 1975 instead of 13 April 1975. According to this data base it was 11 April 1975. Concert Data Base

Thanks for that Snowdog. That is just one of many references that I came up with also. Normally something like this wouldn't bother me too much but I really need to find out, a ticket stub or something would do the trick. There are just too many discrepencies. I know that Rush were headliners for that concert with Status Quo during the FBN tour, and I know it was at the Michigan Palace because my hometown is Windsor and I know the Detroit area very good. Could it be that this gig is not documented anywhere? I know it is not documented on any Status Quo site and there are quite a few websites. Maybe that Quo gig in Grand Rapids I mentioned above is off by 1 day, (but it is documented for April 13 '75). If so then I would venture to guess that Rush were last minute headliner replacements for Kiss, who were booked in Missouri that evening. I just can't let this one die.

I hope I don't make this post too long but here goes: I saw the band only once. It was at the Michigan Palace in Detroit MI, and I know for fact it was in 1975 (Fly By Night tour). Rush headlined for Status Quo. At first I thought it was on April 13th but I think Quo were in Grand Rapids MI on that evening. Many websites state that Rush were support for Kiss that evening, but other websites state that Kiss were in Missouri that evening. The Michigan Palace only seats about 4200 and I know it's a longshot, but I have to ask anyways, anybody on the board see that concert with Quo? Or can someone please shed some light on this? thanks
