  • A guest 60% for Judas Priest · Mon, 06 Nov 1978

    i was downstairs in the stalls, and about half way back. I remember KK Downing and Glen Tipton's dual guitar antics quite well ...and a fantastic rendition of Beyond the realms of death.
    I tried to record it with a mono hanimex cassette recorder and a seperate mic ..stashed under my seat. came out dreadful i remember ! and no i do not have the tape anymore :-)

  • A guest 20% for John Mayall · Sun, 16 Nov 1969

    Seventeen year old me, member of local band Jan Hus and a Liverpudlian. We (Jan Hus) had spent hours listening to ‘ Blues From Lauren Canyon’. To be in the presence of the master was something special . But to be honest I didn’t expect the accoustic set. Thompson was keen and Mayall was amazing. Not his greatest moment but I’m glad I was there. I think the ticket cost £1.
