Friday nights in the 70s after Johnny Carson came The Midnight Special. The show would be hosted by Wolfman Jack, and featured live performances by the 70s most popular bands and solo artists. Almost exactly 33 years ago to the day we would get to see Journey, The Charlie Daniels Band, Robert John, and George Benson all on the same show.
