This list is incomplete and may never satisfy any subjective standard for completeness. You can help Bhamwiki by expanding it.

Context

Neighborhood complaints led the Park & Recreation Board to request promoters limit the sound volume at concerts in 1971, and to prohibit rock concerts at the ballpark entirely in 1973. That prohibition was later lifted.
