POINT BLANK are the underrated KINGS of Southern Rock . . . I saw POINT BLANK play LIVE at the Victory Theatre in downtown Dayton, Ohio, on May 17th, 1980 - when I was just 16-years-old. The concert was very, very loud; and it was broadcast LIVE on the local Classic Rock Radio Station, "WTUE" - The whole evening was, indeed, a rare and unforgettable night of PURE-HARD-ROCK-EXTRAVAGANZA.

Hi everybody, from France where we are biggest fan of Point Blank !!!! So underrated band, The band is still playing since they put it back together a few years ago, but unfortunatly, Kim Davis the original second guitar player passed away 3 years ago, the bass players ( they got two, Tom petty, the little guy, and Bill Randolph who was playing end of 70's and begining of 80's) are also gone to the musician heaven. So Now , Rusty Burns (upside down awesome lefthanded guitar player), and John O' Daniel the Singer are still in the band. Check their video's, those of the actual band but also the 80 and 81 concerts, this band was so powerfull, too bad that Bill Ham, their producer at that time, had another "one of a kind" band to promote....., the 'little band from Texas' with the long bearded guys.............

The singer was a big ole imposing powerful voice guy, the bass player was this little bearded guy, the lead guitar player played an upside down fender I think, and the second guitar guy's hair was so long you didn't know what he looked like. I don't remember what the drummer looked like. I love this band, wish their music was more accessible these days. I don't think I've ever been to a better southern rock concert….

She introduced him and we all talked for a while then as they were leaving he said he was in a band and we should come watch them play. I'd never heard of Point Blank at the time but we went anyway.

I saw these guys play probably 25 to 30 times over the years, and even though someone decided their stuff wasn't radio friendly, which I take acception to, but there is no arguement that it was stage friendly. They actually toured, opening for ZZ Top, Uriah Heap, and others for almost two years before they even had an album out. One note that most people forget, is that they were set to start a huge tour with Lynyrd Skynyrd, and Rusty was going to meet them in Shreveport the day of the plane crash that killed members of Skynyrd. They suddenly had to scramble to tour and promote their new album. That tour could well have really put them on the map, but wasn't meant to be. Great music, that to many never got to hear.

Saw Point Blank in 1976 at Groves Stadium in Winston Salem NC. They opened up for Elvin Bishop, Skynyrd and ZZ Top! The Hells Angels even showed up as well!

John O'Daniels tried to pick up my wife at a gig I was playing in Dallas after he left Point Blank. He often plays with a band called The Stratobasters in the Dallas area and they're great. Been married to my wife now 37 years, no harm no foul!! He still sounds good but I'm better looking.....

Saw these boys at the Agora Ballroom, Atlanta. Early 80's in support of the Hard Way album. Sold out show and it was also a live radio broadcast, something that's rarely done anymore. Great rockin' show!

+R C Interesting you should say that. I saw POINT BLANK as a headline act at the Victory Theatre (now called the "Victoria" Theatre) in downtown Dayton, Ohio, on May 17th, 1980. A local act called "The Bearcreek Band" opened the show, which was simulcast on the local rock station, WTUE. The ticket price was $4.00. We were pretty young and it was getting late and had to leave before the end of the show. It was bizarre on the ride home to listen to a concert on the radio that I was just at (and was still happening!) It was a good, hard-rocking show. The people LOVED it.

My dad remembers it being 76 as part of the Worldwide Texas Tour for the release of Fandango. He said that this concert was one of the most memorable for him because of all the stage props ZZ Top had. Definitely nothing like that going on around Winston now.
