I remember seeing GG at the Tower Theater in northern NJ I think during the Glass House tour (1974, I believe). I was blown away by their virtuosity and theatrics. At one point in this multi-instrumental display, the entire group was huddled together in the center of the stage playing toy xylophones! They were the opening act for a Swedish band named Focus (remember them?) who were such a letdown after GG that we left halfway through their set. It definitely ranks as one of the best rock concerts I've ever seen.
