Hee hee, I bet I can guess which high school. I graduated from Dimond in ’74, went to college in Portland and eventually moved to Portland in June or July of ’80, but did a few IA extra calls in the first part of ’80. As I recall, West High was about the only school then with a decent auditorium.

Hi Jeff,
     Yes, that is correct. It was a terrific auditorium to learn in being "the" largest in the state so all the big shows touring through came in. Super Trooper spotlights, Orchestra Pit that would lower 14Ft into the lower storage and dressing room area, 50Ft wide Proscenium that was 20Ft high, and a luxurious 25Ft of space in both wings, Lofts and full fly system. Dimmer board and audio system ....ah... the memories.
We had some great shows while I was there. Paublo Cruise, Metallica, Grateful Dead, Joffry Ballet II, Marcel Marceau, many Anchorage Concert Association shows, Three Dog Night, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Flying Karamazov Bros, Weird Al, Miss Alaska Pageants.
We had a lot of fun and learned a lot before even heading off to college for the industry.
Jeff
