Any one remember the plastic bottles being thrown, what a sight, just like a plague of locusts.
Plastic bottles were the main missile of the day,Riot had a couple from my good self
they were shite.
The weather was a chuffing roaster, remember them, long hot summer days.The local old age scrouts complained about the noise that was coming from Burslem, it could be heard 3 miles away in Bradwell, fkn priceless was that.No ale on sale
i think they fkd up with the licence so panda pops were the refresh of the day
One of the best, spinal tap moments was when Vardis came on, Steve zodiac had a head full of johnsons talcum powder , he flicked his head ,then wow, watch that white stuff catch the wind.
Being honest Vardis were pretty good that day.
Riot were shit.
Triumph tried , but never captured the crowd.
Then enter Frank, fk me ive never heard any one play like that, being honest i still haven't and dont think i ever will.
Ozzy was top draw, DANNY, THIS WAS THE SECOND TIME I SAW GOD PLAY HIS GUITAR.
I paid my money just too see Randy Rhoads , it was worth every penny from my hard worked paper round.A guitar god that the likes of you and me will never see again,a lot of people say OZZY was shit faced that day, well if he was god bless him as that was 0zzy at his finest.Ozzy gave us songs off the first Blizzard album ; a few from ‘Diary Of A Madman’; and finished up with Sabbath’s ‘Iron Man’, ‘Children Of The Grave’ and ‘Paranoid’.
Ive never been a Motorhead fan but they did a stern job, Fast Eddie ,Filthy phil and Lemmy,classic line up.
