1979

On a live TV performance in 1979, the Finnish artist Gregorius performed a unique version of the then-popular Village People song “YMCA.” Although in Finland, the letters translate to “NMKY." The group also wore basketball uniforms rather than the costumes worn by the Village People...

This was one of the 112 concerts on the 'Tusk Tour.' The band performed 21 songs in the UNI-Dome that night in front of a sold out crowd of 25,556. Opener: Danny Douma Ticket Price: $10      

The list of artists include everything from AC/DC to Van Halen
