Date | Venue and Location | Comments | Event type |
unknown date | Bobern Bar & Grill New York, NY United States | Stillettoes (pre-Blondie: from August 1973 to May 1974). This was at 42 W 28th Street between Broadway and 6th Avenue. The venue was often misspelled "Boburn" and is usually called the "Boburn Tavern", such as in Making Tracks and by most authors writing about this period in Blondie's history. Chris Stein stated "I still maintain that boburn is spelled like that, yeah we all knew it was bob and ernie all along". [They were the owners]. Recently the son of one of the owners wrote to slightly correct this account: the owner's names were Bob and Bernie. In her book "BLONDIE, Unseen 1976-1980" (and the earlier French version), Roberta Bayley published two photographs of Debbie and Chris in front of it. In the photos on page 96, the window is decoratively painted with the lettering "BEAUBERN CAFE" and "42 WEST 28 STREET" and the awning text ("BAR & RESTAURANT") is reflected in the window. The 1974-75 Manhattan telephone directory at the New York Public Library has an entry with the correct spelling, showing the complete, accurate legal name of the establishment at that time.

12-Dec-73 | New York, NY United States | A review of a Stillettoes gig was published in Variety magazine on 12-Dec-1973. At the time, Variety was a weekly magazine published on Wednesdays and the writers were typically credited using a 4-letter abbreviation. This review was credited to "Kirb." This appears to be Fred Kirby. The review did not identify the date of the gig being reviewed, but the gig was very likely from 3-Dec-1973. "I'd Rather Go Blind" is an Etta James cover.

In his interview with Rhythm magazine, Clem said that Club 82 was a transvestite/lesbian bar located at East 4th Street and 2nd Avenue in NYC. Paul Zone posted, on his Facebook page, a better copy of the ad, plus what appears to be another ad from a different publication. In a comment on the post, Chris Stein asked, "Anyone remember who David Lee was? I don't", to which Donna Destri replied, "He was a tall blonde dude, the manager and sometimes DJ at the 82."

16-Aug-74 | CBGB New York, NY United States | First Angel and the Snake gig at CBGB (source: George Gimarc, "Punk Diary") with the Ramones. They only performed two shows using this name. Note: it is NOT "Angel and the Snakes" -- that is a perpetuating error in many publications documenting this period in Blondie history. On 29-Sept-2014, in answer to Michelle Shinn's question about the band name, Chris Stein said that they got the idea from a photograph in Esquire, "The girl in the picture looked vaguely like Debbie, had cheekbones.", and that served as the inspiration for the illustration and band name. The "Slaves of Rhythm" was a drag act, Chris named Fayette Hauser, Tomata du Plenty, and Gorilla Rose. | Concert |

17-Jan-75 | CBGB New York, NY United States | w/ Television. Chris said that at one point, they played at CBGBs every weekend for seven months (date unknown, but it is probably this one).

An ad in the SoHo Weekly News (Vol.2 #15 pg.27) exists with them billed simply as Blondie. Chris's statement is supported by John Holmstrom, who wrote in his book "The Best of Punk Magazine" pg 177 (2012), "Blondie were the only band from the CBGB scene who also hung out at Studio 54; they played benefits for the Gay Liberation Movement, served as the CBGB house band, and were friendly with all the disparate elements of the 1970's rock scene."

10-Mar-75 | New York, NY United States | A classified ad written by Debbie Harry and Chris Stein advertising for a drummer is placed in the Village Voice Vol. XX Nr. 10 pg. 42. This was the ad that landed Clem Burke his job with Blondie, a career that would span over 40 years as one of the founding members. He was the last of about 50 applicants to be auditioned.

7-Apr-75 | CBGB New York, NY United States | Blondie and The Marbles. According to Tony Fletcher's book "All Hopped Up and Ready to Go: Music from the Streets of New York 1927-77", this was Clem Burke's first gig. This show was on a Monday. In "Making Tracks", Debbie describes the event: "We rehearsed with Clem and Fred for a couple of weeks, then went out and did our first show as Blondie at CBGB's. This was our jungle night show, with me, Tish, and Snooky dressed as jungle girls in leather skins tied with thongs and accented by bits of fur. In between sets, Fred freaked Chris out by telling him he was going to replace Richard Hell in Television over the weekend." The band performed two sets. In his interview in Rhythm magazine, Clem said that his first two gigs with Blondie were at CBGB. On the first night, (established as April 7, 1975) Fred Smith announced he was leaving the band to join Television. Then, Clem brought his friend Gary Valentine into the band. That was in early 1975, now established as between the two sets on April 7, 1975. An ad, published in the Village Voice, Vol XX No.14 pg. 94, exists: (ad listing) | Concert |
8-Apr-75 | CBGB New York, NY United States | Blondie and The Marbles. This gig was very likely canceled due to the sudden departure of bassist Fred Smith, who announced this between the two sets the previous night.

17-Apr-75 | New York, NY United States | In his SoHo Weekly news column, (Vol. 2 No. 28 pg. 32) Danny Fields wrote "In a shockeroo move, bassist Richard Hell has left Television to start a new group (details must wait until next week). Replacing Richard temporarily will probably be the bass player of Blondie, and no doubt Television will continue as before, but Richard will be missed." As of the Spring of 2015, Fred Smith is still the bass player for Television. | comment |

They did a cover of the Shangri-Las "Out in the Streets" and four original numbers, one of which, "The Disco Song", became "Heart of Glass".

30-May-76 | Manhattan Center New York, NY United States | Blondie performed as part of a "Fantabulous New York Rock Party" fundraiser for Wayne County's legal defense bills. On March 24, Wayne County appeared in court, charged with assault after an incident at CBGB where he had attacked Dictators' singer "Handsome Dick" Manitoba with a mic stand, fracturing his collarbone. Manitoba, who had shouted a series of homophobic remarks during Wayne County's performance, was injured during the brawl and had sued Wayne County. The fundraising event was hosted by Cherry Vanilla with performances by County, Holly Woodlawn, Dee Dee Ramone, Jack Curtis, Tuff Darts, Mink DeVille, Blondie, The Dolls, Suicide, and Divine, along with the Off-Broadway cast of *Women Behind Bars*. The gig flyer indicates there is a $5.00 minimum donation and all proceeds go to the Wayne County Defense Fund. Paul Zone posted photographs of the event program on his Facebook page. It credits Debbie Harry as "Debbie Blondie". Photographer Allan Tannenbaum took a photograph of her, in the striped pillowcase dress, backstage at the event.

Summer, 1976 | The Show Place NJ United States | A contributor wrote: "Back in the summer of 1976 I was working as the Assistant Manager at a club in North Jersey called The Show Place. I was in the DJ booth when a very nice couple (Chris and Debbie) came up to me and handed me two copies of X-Offender/In The Sun on Private Stock records. I can remember playing that 45 several times over the next few months. Actually that was the first time in public that a recording of Blondie was played in the Garden State. I can also remember playing pinball with you and Debbie when your band came back to play at the club. It was a nice experience. Since then I have played in my own band The Chillers." | appearance |

September, 1976 | CUANDO Gym New York, NY United States | two questions: 1. Is the Venue location: Houston Street? 2. Deborah Olin says this must have been a meeting because there was only one show there. | comment |
23-Oct-76 | Mini Festival At CUANDO Gym New York, NY United States | Promo and booking and concept by Deborah Olin. Deborah provided the poster image and says that NY rock productions is on all the newspaper ads and tickets. She also settled some of the confusion about this date: there was only one time they played; however, she incorrectly stated that the person who did the poster misspelled the name. The confusion is now eliminated: The Coordinator of Contemporary, Photography and Works on Paper of the Brooklyn Museum contributed on 11 July 2018: "The notes are incorrect for this entry from 1976. The performance space was actually called 'CUANDO' not 'Quando'. It was not a mistake on the gig flyer. CUANDO was located at 9 2nd Avenue. The letters were an acronym for 'Cultural Understanding And Neighborhood Development Organization'. I performed there many times." (gig flyer) | Concert |

Only Nov. 18-19 was possible due to the venue's schedule, and a thorough investigation that included written material and discussions with Paul "Blowfish" Lovell, an archivist of the history of The Rat and the Boston punk scene, concluded Blondie never played this venue.

December 2-4, 1976 | CBGB New York, NY United States | Mumps were an American punk band fronted by Lance Loud. A friend of their guitarist Rob Duprey found a "contract", handwritten in blue pen by Debbie Harry at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, between CBGB OMFUG and Blondie outlining terms for shows with Mumps opening Dec 2-4, 1976. This agreement states that Blondie agrees to play two sets each night, at midnight and 2:00am. Note the style of Debbie's letter 'a', which she changed about two years later to the style she uses ever since. It is not known for certain which gigs in this date range are accurately listed.

23-Dec-76 | CBGB New York, NY United States | Source of this gig and the date is a 2-set online bootleg audio recording from vivalesbootlegs.blogspot.com. Before the song, someone (Clem?) says the lyrics were written by Lisa Persky (also known as Lisa Jane Persky), and Debbie adds "by the way, the name of the song is 'Euphony'." The song was co-written with Gary Valentine. The first song in the set is listed as "money go love", which I thought was "money no love" (a confirmed earlier title of Blondie's 1977 song "Fan Mail"). Set 1: Money Go Love; Poet's Problem/Little Girl Lies; Rifle Range; Bermuda Triangle Blues; Euphony; Contact In Red Square; I'm Always Touched By Your Presence Dear; Rip Her To Shreds; Kung Fu Girls; In The Sun; X Offender.

6-Mar-77 | The Keystone Palo Alto, CA United States | This show is not in the band itinerary, but appears accurate. An attendee wrote, "A friend, the manager of my then-band (we were called "Idiot" -- we played the Mabuhay several times during its heyday and various other local venues) and I went to Blondie's show at the Keystone Palo Alto that night. I had never heard them live before, and probably hadn't heard much of their music in those pre-internet days, but I certainly knew of them from magazines like Rock Scence, and because our band was kind of stretched between the glamour and punk eras and were influenced by both, I of course knew all the CBGBs bands and had records from those who had made them. Because I was working evenings, my friend and I had to go to the second show, and when we got to the Keystone there was literally one other customer in the place, a drunk guy asleep with his head on the table. There were workers, bartenders, whatever in the building of course, but he was the only other audience member. My recollection is that a few other people may have wandered in during the show, which was probably about 45 minutes to an hour max, but the crowd never exceeded a half-dozen beyond us, the sleeping guy woke up and wandered out, and the few newcomers seemed more interested in drinking than watching the band. I was definitely there for the 2nd show of the evening and as far as I can remember, the set list looks right, although I wouldn't remember if a few of them were wrong or out of order, because almost forty years ago. Also, the fact that it was a sort of off-the-cuff gig goes a little way toward explaining the stunning lack of customers." Another person had a tape allegedly from this, containing the following set: Palisades Park (Chuck Barris cover), Little Girl Lies, Look Good In Blue, Presence Dear, Man Overboard, Little GTO (Ronny & The Daytonas cover), In The Sun, Rip Her To Shreds, Evil Friends (early Blondie, unreleased original song; Debbie introduces the song as a "jazz-rock" number), Poets Problem, Flight 45, Platinum Blonde, Kung Fu Girls, I Didn't Have The Nerve To Say No, Rifle Range, Fan Mail, Moonlight Drive (The Doors), A Shark In Jets Clothing, Star Beast (Gary Valentine-Ronnie Toast, unreleased original song), Goldfinger (John Barry cover), Heatwave (Martha & The Vandellas cover), X Offender.

15-May-77 | The Elgin Theatre New York, NY United States | Blondie was to have appeared with The Senders.

20-May-77 | Village Bowl Bournemouth England | A contributor who was jointly responsible for promoting this concert on behalf of the Bournemouth College Students Union states: "On 20 May 1977 Blondie played the Village Bowl, Bournemouth, but this was not with Television. There was only 1 set as well. This gig was their first gig in the UK and Europe and was a few days prior to the Television tour starting." [The band itinerary had indicated there two sets, but those itineraries are not entirely accurate for this time period.] A different contributor gives the location as Westover Drive, Bournemouth and states: "It was a replacement gig for the canceled Sex Pistols 'Anarchy in the UK Tour' date", later describing watching Debbie perform "Rip Her To Shreds" on a five foot stage. | Concert, 1st European Tour '77 |
21-May-77 | Glasgow Scotland | An article in New Musical Express (30-Apr-1977) mentioned the tour, and a full page ad for Television's "Marquee Moon" May tour of the UK with Blondie appeared in the 21-May-1977 edition of the UK music paper Sounds. Debbie was also photographed, as she (and perhaps others in the band) watched The Ramones and Talking Heads performing at the University of Strathclyde.

June -July, 1977 | Plaza Sound New York, NY United States | Blondie recorded their second album, Plastic Letters. Producer: Richard Gotteher. Debbie wrote: Plastic Letters cover was shot at the Tropicana. Chrysalis thought it was too punkish, because I was wearing a pillowcase with red tape striped around it and the boys had on leather, so we had to re-shoot in New York. We rented a police car for some shots in the street and coincidentally a sign in the store across the street captured in the photograph read Plastic Letters. Terry Ellis, the president of Chrysalis suggested we use that as the title. As soon as the record was finished Leeds insisted we go and play the Whisky in L.A. for six nights so Chrysalis, which is based there, could see what it had bought. We did this against our better judgment because we didn't have the band together and we needed time to regroup. But the pace was beginning to pick up now and things were getting so frantic that we didn't have much choice but to go. Soon we were moving too fast to maintain control of what was happening around us and we had to leave it all up to Peter. He would say, "Oh I signed a contract and you have to play here." Or, "The record company expects you to go there and do some promo." The L.A. shows were pretty bad. Frankie couldn't really play bass so he played bass on half the songs and Chris played on the others. John Cassavetes and Sam Shaw filmed these shows for a projected movie called Blondie, which never happened. [*new*] | Recording |

The band flew over to Bilzen. We had a cancellation of Lou Reed, if I remember correctly. The band had no instruments here. We hired the instruments. It was a "surprise act". The band was not on the bill. This explains why the concert doesn't figure in the itineraries." Photos exist online, as does the setlist and a mention in the lineup shown on the festival website (now only archived): (external link) | Concert |

27-Aug-78 | Gröna Lunds Tivoli Stockholm Sweden | An attendee stated this show was at Tivoli Gardens (full name Gröna Lunds Tivoli) in Copenhagen, but the venue is in Stockholm. Chris Stein's band itinerary listed it as Grona Lund Tivoli in Stockholm, performing with Buzzcocks. A different source indicates the venue is "Konserthuset" (English: "The Concert Hall"). Gröna Lund (lit. "Green Grove") is an amusement park in Stockholm, the oldest in Sweden. It is operated by Gröna Lunds Tivoli AB. In April 2023, a ticket stub for this show was listed for sale on Ebay, with the following description: "BLONDIE / 27 August 1978 concert ticket stub - Gröna Lund, Stockholm, Sweden [vintage original ticket stub] / Original ticket stub. All of the concert ticket stubs up for grabs this week used to belong to an avid Swedish concert goer called Kaj Sjöberg. He saved all of his ticket stubs and kept notebooks with meticulous comments about all concerts he had attended, where/when they took place, gave them ratings on a 5-star scale and often accompanied them with notes such as "met the group at the airport/hotel", "took pictures" etc. Most of the concerts he attended took place in Stockholm, but he also ventured to Gothenburg and London, UK. Some really special and iconic concerts. / Size: 11.2 cm x 4.8 cm (approximately 4.5" x 2"); Condition: VG+ (crease, three staple marks, writing on back) ".

7-Nov-78 | Ontario Theater Washington, DC United States | An attendee writes: "It was a weeknight, a couple of weeks before Thanksgiving. I found out about the show from an ad in the Washington Post. Heart of Glass had not been released as a single yet so Blondie was not well known at the time except in new wave circles. The Ontario was a small dumpy 1950's movie theater that had a stage. The theater is long gone now. | Concert, 2nd U.S. Tour '78 |
10-Nov-78 | Wilkeson Pub - U.B Amherst Campus Buffalo, NY United States | The band itinerary indicates the venue was "Patrick Henry's", but a gig flyer has been discovered which advertises the show as being at the Wilkeson Pub -- University of Buffalo's Amherst Campus, 10pm, tickets $2.50 in advance, $4.50 at the door. An attendee wrote: "We had to stand for the whole concert because everyone else did too. And boy were they loud! Their dressing room was a trailer parked on the sidewalk in front of the theater. After the concert a couple of the band members came out of the trailer to meet fans. I got to meet a couple of them. Debbie Harry did not come out." (gig flyer) | Concert, 2nd U.S. Tour '78 |
11-Nov-78 | Little Theater at Public Hall Cleveland, OH United States | After the concert we went to the original 930 Club, which back then was a downtown hole in the wall on F Street in DC that had a great jukebox with the likes of Iggy Pop, etc." | Concert, 2nd U.S. Tour '78 |

18-Nov-78 | Winterland San Francisco, CA United States | Also appearing: REO Speedwagon and local act "The Readymades." This was Bill Graham's premiere club for bands from 1971-1978; it held 5500 people. This show was recorded, and broadcast on December 31 (the closing night of the venue). | Concert, 2nd U.S. Tour '78 |
19-Nov-78 | Coconut Grove Ballroom Santa Cruz, CA United States | with Greg Kihn. This was previously incorrectly listed as at the Santa Cruz Civic. The contributor who attended and made the correction adds: "I remember Clem standing up for a while as he played drums, and thinking it was so cool! This was right around the time Keith Moon died. Santa Cruz had a strong punk scene and many great bands." | Concert, 2nd U.S. Tour '78 |
21-Nov-78 | Santa Monica Civic Auditorium Santa Monica, CA United States | An attendee of this show confirmed the date and setlist written down at the time: In The Sun, X Offender, Hanging On The Telephone, Detroit 442, Fan Mail, Picture This, 11:59, Pretty Baby, I'm Always Touched By Your Presence Dear, Sunday Girl, Denis, I'm on E, I'm Gonna Love You Too, Will Anything Happen?, Fade Away And Radiate, Heart Of Glass, I Know But I Don't Know, One Way Or Another, Youth Nabbed As Sniper; Kung Fu Girls, Bang A Gong (Get It On), Rip Her To Shreds; Heroes.

2-Dec-78 | Ukrainian Theater New York, NY United States | Blondie as part of the New Wave lineup at the Nova Convention | Concert, 2nd U.S. Tour '78 |
3-Dec-78 | Irving Plaza New York, NY United States | Chris and Debbie (on drums) as part of Walter Steding's band (not a Blondie gig). This was originally listed here as a gig at "Club 57", but someone who attended said it was at Irving Plaza and *promoted* by Club 57, who apparently promoted some shows held there. This show was very late (about 2am, so technically on December 3) so they probably came on after the Ukrainian Theater gig on December 2 (both are believed to be correct). Robert Fripp played at this show. | Concert |
29-Dec-78 | Wharton, TX United States | The book, "The Year In Music: 1979" mentions this very unlikely event in a tiny town an hour outside of Houston. More info needed on this. Another contributor says "I know Circus Magazine has had erroneous Blondie tour dates in the past. Was wondering if they really did play Dallas on 12/3/78 & Wharton, TX 12/8/78. The website makes no mention of Dec 78 tour dates or Texas shows during that time. The source is Circus Magazine #201 December 5, 1978 The reason I asked is that Wharton, TX only has a population of about 10,000. The only venue there would be Wharton Community College. I grew up about 40 miles from there and could find no mention of them playing there." Consequently these entries may be erroneous and/or something possibly planned by the band that never materialized. | Concert, 2nd U.S. Tour '78 |
31-Dec-78 | Oakland Coliseum Arena Oakland, CA United States | An attendee contributes: There were three bands that night: The Baby's opened, then Blondie played, and Journey headlined. My most vivid memory of the night, aside from the show, was a huge banner that read "Blondie is a group!". (show flyer) (show flyer) (sexternal link)[*new*] | Concert, 2nd U.S. Tour '78 |
31-Dec-78 | Winterland San Francisco, CA United States | This is included here for clarification. December 31 was the closing night of Winterland (San Francisco), with the Grateful Dead and the Blues Brothers playing live that evening, also the night of the KSAN radio broadcast (mentioned in Making Tracks) of Blondie's prerecorded November 18 performance with REO Speedwagon. [*new*] | Concert broadcast, 2nd U.S. Tour '78 |
2-Jan-79 | The Commodore Ballroom Vancouver, BC Canada | This date was listed on "Blondie Schedule of Engagements" and a payment was received. No venue was listed on it. An attendee contributed the venue name and said: "Blondie headlined and the venue sold out (1000 tickets at $15). The Ramones played the same venue either the day before or the day after Blondie." Blondie's sound engineer at the time, who started work with Blondie at this gig also confirmed this event and the subsequent two others. | Concert, 2nd U.S. Tour '78 |
3-Jan-79 | Paramount Theatre Seattle, WA United States | This date was listed on "Blondie Schedule of Engagements" but it indicated no payment was received. However, rocktourdatabase.com lists this date and venue with an admission price of $2.00, but without physical evidence such as an ad or ticket stub. Blondie's sound engineer at the time also confirmed this event. In June 2023, a ticket stub appeared in an Ebay listing. (ticket stub)[*new*] | Concert, 2nd U.S. Tour '78 |
4-Jan-79 | Paramount Theatre Portland, OR United States | This date was listed on "Blondie Schedule of Engagements" but it indicated no payment was received. An Ebay listing on 06 October 2020 for an unused ticket ($2.00 face value) included a photo of both sides of the ticket for Buy It Now $84.99. This venue, located at 1037 SW Broadway, was known as the Paramount Theatre from 1930 until it reopened in 1984 after major renovations, after which it was known as the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall. Blondie's sound engineer at the time also confirmed this event and has a stereo cassette soundboard recording of it. "Sunday Girl" from this recording was officially released on a 2x7" special Record Store Day release, out 23-Apr-2022, and on 12" vinyl by Z2 Comics as part of their "Against the Odds" hardcover graphic novel deluxe edition, out February 2023.

January 5-7,1979 | Port Allen, LA United States | Circus Magazine (9-Jan-1979) indicates Blondie gigs in Port Allen, LA on January 5, 6, 7, but these are not shown in the band's itinerary or on their schedule of engagements. Probably not accurate; possibly canceled. | (Canceled?) Concert |
19-Jan-79 | The Midnight Special United States | A Chrysalis promo item advertising 'See Blondie host The Midnight Special January 19th / "Heart of Glass" their new 12" disco single / "Parallel Lines" their new album / Chrysalis' and two fans vividly recall this broadcast, so this is very likely an accurate date for Blondie's first appearance on this show. (poster) | T.V. Show (air date) |
21-Jan-79 | The Spectrum Philadelphia, PA United States | Blondie is reported to have opened for a sold-out Rush show, but was unable to perform because of riotous fans throwing things on stage after Chris gave them the finger. An attendee confirmed Blondie left the stage before finishing their act. That account verbatim: "It was at the spectrum in philly on a cold jan. night. i was sitting on the first level with the stage to my right. There was a dance floor (standing room only on the floor) and it was packed. Blondie came on and the Rush fans started booing. They played a song or two and then the trash started flying onto the stage. I remember one of the Blondie band members giving the finger and then the drummer kicked his drum set over and started to walk off stage, followed by the rest of the band. this is about all i remember from 27 years ago." This gig appears on the "Blondie Schedule of Engagements" and a payment was received. | Concert |
9-Mar-79 | Burt Sugarman's "Midnight Special" United States | This is listed in Chris Stein's itinerary. The show was probably taped the same day as the broadcast, and this is probably Blondie's second original appearance on the show. | T.V. Show (recording) |

8-Jul-79 | Sunset Series at Belmont Park Race Track Belmont, Long Island, NY United States | w/ Rockpile | Concert, U.S. Tour '79 |
9-Jul-79 | Wollman Rink, Central Park New York, NY United States | w/ Rockpile. This date is listed on the "Blondie Schedule of Engagements" as "Great Lawn" (corrected by an attendee as "Wollman Rink"), so it probably didn't rain. An attendee adds more info about the gig: "It wasn't free. Some of the really big concerts there were free events but every summer from, I think,1969 through 1981 had a series of concerts at Wollman Rink. The big freebies were in the middle of the park. At first they were sponsored by a beer company but by the time Blondie played they were sponsored by the Dr. Pepper soda company. I do have a ticket stub but it just says the date, not the bands. They must have printed up all the tickets first and then booked the bands as they could. I believe the prices were 6 bucks for the good seats and 3 bucks for in the back! The very last Wollman Rink show was The Pretenders in 1981. After that the concerts were moved to Pier 84 near the West Side Highway due to noise complaints from people living near the park." Radio station WPLJ apparently created buttons (pinbacks) to promote the event. (promo button) | Concert, U.S. Tour '79 |
10-Jul-79 | Rain Date For Central Park New York, NY United States | Rain date for show with Rockpile. The original show occurred as scheduled on July 9 because it did not rain. | Concert, U.S. Tour '79 |
11-Jul-79 | Stanley Theater Pittsburgh, PA United States | One source (perhaps an ad or a schedule) listed the opening act as Powerhouse, but an attendee with a good memory is fairly certain it was "Off Broadway". The ticket stub only lists Blondie. He adds the following details: "The show started at 8PM. Debbie was wearing matching red dress pants and red sleeveless blouse. She had red high heel shoes on. Frank was wearing an old sport coat as was Jimmy and Chris. Clem had his bulls eye t-shirt. Nigel had a tight tucked in dress shirt, polka dot I think and tight dress pants. I clearly remember this show was Wednesday July 11 because The Cars played on Friday July 13th at the same venue. Rachel Sweet from OH opened for The Cars." | Concert, U.S. Tour '79 |
12-Jul-79 | Merriweather Post Pavilion Columbia, MD United States | w/ Rockpile. Ticket stub is unverified (lacks band, date) but seems to be from an authentic Ebay listing from April 2023. (ticket stub?) | Concert, U.S. Tour '79 |

29-Jul-79 | The Fox Theater Atlanta, GA United States | w/ Rockpile. This is the entry in the band's itinerary, but it is not listed on the "Blondie Schedule of Engagements" so it was probably changed to July 28 instead. July 29 was definitely in Gainesville. | comment, U.S. Tour '79 |

The band itinerary indicates the venue is "Stateside Centre" but a scan of a ticket to the event shows "Bournemouth Village Bowl". (ticket stub) | Concert, European Tour 1979-'80 |
27-Dec-79 | De Montfort Hall Leicester England | A review of this show, including photographs, was published in the Leicester Mercury the following day stating attendance was 2,500 and "Two frustrated ticketless fans tried an unorthodox route into the hall, via the roof, but they were quickly rumbled." It mentioned, despite torrential rain, there were "ticket touts" (now known in the US as scalpers) trying to sell tickets for £20-30, and "Blondie are admirers of The Police, who were in Leicester last week" and, quoting Debbie, "We went to see the group in action at the Lewisham Odeon and really enjoyed it". The finale included "I Feel Good" (James Brown cover) and "Louie Louie" (written in 1955 by Richard Berry and best known for the 1963 hit version by the Kingsmen).

15-Jan-80 | Le Pavillon de Paris Paris France | In Best magazine #138, the venue for this show is advertised as being "Le Pavillon de Paris". The band's itinerary indicates the show was at "Clementine/Nuggets"; however this is not correct -- Clementine/Nuggets is just a record store which sold tickets at that time. The FNAC is also a ticket outlet. Confusion about this date was caused by misinterpreting a Chrysalis Eat To The Beat Tour poster which reads "KCP presente Blondie Mardi 15 Janv 20H Pav De Paris. Loc: 3FNAC, Clementine, Nuggets". Information suggesting that the gig was at Hippodrome du Pantin is also incorrect: although in 1980, the Pavillon de Paris was closed, and for the next 3 years, most touring rock bands appeared at the Hippodrome de Pantin in the nearby Parc de la Villette, Blondie did in fact perform at Le Pavillon. In 1983, the Hippodrome was itself replaced by Le Zénith de Paris. User contributed setlist: Dreaming, Slow Motion, Shayla, Union City Blue, The Hardest Part, Die Young, Stay Pretty, Accidents Never Happen, Victor, Atomic, Living in the Real World, Denis, Picture This, Pretty Baby, Heart of Glass, Eat to the Beat, Hanging on the Telephone (The Nerves cover), Sunday Girl, I Got You (I Feel Good) (James Brown cover), Louie Louie (Richard Berry cover), One Way or Another. Blondie's sound engineer at the time, Pat Maloney, recalled on 20 August 2020, the following memory of this gig: "As a side note, one Eat to the Beat tour memory that's literally frozen into my brain was the concert in Paris at Le Pavillon de Paris on January 15, 1980. Being a previous meat packing plant plus the fact that it was the middle of January, the entire floor was solid ice. Evidently the facility was also used as an ice skating venue in the winter! Anyway, all the promoters did was put down sheets of plywood on the ice and every one of us froze our tails off. I'm pretty sure the band didn't stick around to do an encore after that show!" Pat Maloney's recording of "Sunday Girl" was released as one of the tracks on Blondie's 2x7" vinyl 2022 Record Store Day release (3000 copies manufactured; see also 23-Apr-2022).

16-Jan-80 | Le Palace Paris France | In Best #138 the venue for this show is advertised as being "Le Palace"; confirmed by an attendee who said The Palace was THE place for great concerts at the time.

CES 1982 ran from June 6 to 9, so the date of the photo printed in the July 3 issue of Billboard might be from one of the other days as the short article did not include the specific date.

25-Jul-82 | Six Flags Over Georgia Atlanta, GA United States | The band played two full-length concerts at the amusement park. (Not two different sets -- it was really the same set, repeated without variation.) The stage was set up outdoors right behind the park's biggest rollercoaster, called The Great American Scream Machine. Blondie played an afternoon concert in full daylight, and then repeated the whole show again after dark. The sunlight show was a rare treat, but their elaborate laser-light effects were not visible until the evening performance. Riders of the rollercoaster could actually catch an excerpt from a song (and get a backstage view) as the roller-cars passed behind the stage every few minutes. | Concert, Tracks Across America Tour '82 |

28-Jul-82 | Sunrise Musical Theatre Sunrise, FL United States | Chris's band itinerary indicates venue was "Sportatorium" in Miami, FL, but an attendee contributed a ticket stub scan with the venue printed as "Sunrise Musical Theatre".

The Sportatorium was 26 miles from downtown Miami. The Sunrise Musical Theatre was a performing arts center located in Sunrise, Florida that opened in late December 1976, located roughly 32 miles north of Miami.

21-Aug-82 | JFK Stadium Philadelphia, PA United States | Blondie played after Robert Hazard & the Heroes and A Flock of Seagulls, and before Elvis Costello & the Attractions and Genesis. Duran Duran opened for them. Their set ended with "Start Me Up" (a cover of the Rolling Stones). A different attendee added some slightly different information: "That's right - Flock of Seagulls - they played a full set; the last time was opening for the Go-Gos and Andy only played 20 minutes because because the singer was sick. Robert Hazard was local, and became known as the writer of "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun". Duran Duran was not on the bill that day. I remember there was one of those planes that carry those ad banners: said Pioneer proudly Presents Blondie... That show was one of the few well-reviewed shows for Blondie from the Hunter tour." RIP Robert Hazard (August 21, 1948 - August 5, 2008). This is the last Blondie show for 15 years. (ticket stub) | Concert, Tracks Across America Tour '82 |

"On the same bill were Laurie Anderson, Philip Glass, the poet John Giorno, Ed Sanders from the Fugs and Patti Smith." He said that Chris's girlfriend at the time, Ila, played bass and that they did some "strange numbers" including songs by Leonard Cohen (September 21, 1934 - November 7, 2016) and Harry Nilsson (June 15, 1941 - January 15, 1994), a version of Heart of Glass, and that Debbie read a passage from one of Jeannette Winterson's books.

3-Mar-06 | Waldorf Astoria New York, NY United States | Blondie is inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame by Shirley Manson of Garbage. The induction speech was followed by an acceptance speech that was slightly disrupted when Frank Infante tried to get the band to perform with him and Nigel Harrison, despite that the idea hadn't been presented in advance and they had not rehearsed. Chris Stein wrote a lengthy discussion of it in March in blog posts on his band member page. Following the speech, Blondie performed "Heart of Glass", "Rapture", and "Call Me". The ceremony was broadcast on March 21 by VH1, and some video is available online. (blog posts) (external link) (youtube link) (youtube link) | Performance |

10-Dec-21 | On 10-Dec-2021, the Retropop magazine website wrote: "Chris Stein has cast doubt on his future with Blondie. The guitarist co-founded the group alongside Debbie Harry back in 1974 but, speaking to NME, the musician admitted heart issues may force him off the road. "I don't know if I'm going to be participating in touring going forward", he explained. "I just have some heart bulls**t." "I take medicine for it that's a little fatiguing. It's an irregular heartbeat. It's not super-serious, but it's just tiring and I don't have the stamina I did when I was 30 or 40. So I mainly deal with the recording at this point. I was actually sitting down for the last couple of tours. I figured if BB King could do it, I could! We'll see."" (external link) | comment | |
