Written on the way home

What people wrote about nights here

  • A guest 100% for Thin Lizzy · Sat, 28 Oct 1978

    My best friend Robert and I were there dressed in black jeans and black leather jackets. We looked like the hells angels security turds so we just walked to the stage, leaned on the fold backs and soaked up the boys are back in town whilst Phil Lynott shook his head and sweat all over us. Haven't washed since!

  • A guest 100% for Thin Lizzy · Fri, 27 Oct 1978

    At 15 this was one of the greatest moments of my life. Until chased by skinheads and seeing one of the guys from my school get his hair lit up with a firework. That made the entire event even better - years later I still wonder how we survived (D, Jim and Stretch) but it was just one of those things.......

  • A guest 100% for John Denver · Wed, 23 Nov 1977

    I was expecting #3 in 1977. We now have 5 kids, 16 grandkids...they ALL love John Denver. The concert was amazing, John was amazing. Miss him so much.

  • KarenAllingham was there 80% for John Denver · Wed, 23 Nov 1977

    Saw it with my mum when I was 21. We didn't often go to concerts together - the only other one I thought she and I would both enjoy was ABBA, again at the Music Bowl. Treasured memories.

  • A guest 100% for Status Quo · Thu, 02 Dec 1976

    I was 16 at the time. I went with my brother and his mates. We were on the lawn area. I spent most of the evening on my brothers shoulders. An awesome memory of my first concert..
