    Poor sound. Angels played first with awesome sound. Billy Idol was main act with excellent sound but Cheap trick wasn't so good

  • A guest 100% for Motörhead · Sat, 21 Jul 1984

    I was there, close to the front on the right of the stage. The opening band "White boys" were good. Motorhead were loud, dominating, fast, in your face but musically tight. At the end of the show a loud siren quickly emptied the town hall. I remember watching buses glide silently past us outside. I was temporarily completely deaf.

    14 yo. First concert. Big fan & I loved every minute. Funny connection, but have been friends with Trudy Stylers sister for about 15 yrs now.
