at the old Oriental Theater in Portland, Oregon. Must have been 1972. Summer. Cold Blood was also on the bill and for a finale the horn sections from both CB and TOP combined. I forget what all was played but in general recall a very good performance. Very tight. Good musicianship.
I also recall the fire marshal getting up on stage, fitting the exact personna that the flower power generation would ridicule, and telling everyone to not be lighting up and smoking whatever it was they were smoking. The atmosphere in that room was rather smoky and with an organic pungent overtone ;-). After the fire marshal, the concert continued, the audience continued doing what it had been and all was well.
