Mine was Metallica and The Cult, at the Spokane Colesium, in 1989, on the Justice tour. Both bands were great!

Mine was Iron Maiden/Coney Hatch and the 3rd act "might" have been Fastway... This is back in early "83" I believe and the details of the 3rd band are a bit sketchy... What I do recall clearly was that it was a really cool show and I had a blast. cool.gif

Mine was the band Zebra...unfortunately I was too young to get into the club by myself, so my mom had to come along...she liked them a lot, but there were a lot of drunk people there (sheesh! Hardly saw ANY for all the concerts I went to for years and years after that!), so it made it difficult to go to club concerts after that, being the underground guy that I am biggrin.gif sad.gif I had to sneak off to see Alcatrazz, which, thank god I did, since they broke up after that album and tour.

Motorhead supported by Sledgehammer at Slough College, 1978.

Next two bands I saw were Judas Priest at the Hammersmith Odeon and Iron Maiden at the Ruskin Arms. Not a bad initiation into the world of Heavy metal biggrin.gif

April Wine in their and my hometown of Halifax, Nova Scotia 1979. I was 12 and the drummer did a solo with his big bald head and his bare fists. It was so cool to a 12 year old. Now, today, if I saw a drummer do that. I'd have to walk away. I'd actually leave the venue. HOWEVER, back in the day, April Wine kicked ass! OK everybody, sing along with me...

I saw April Wine at the Hammersmith Odeon in the early 80s. They weren't bad, I mainly went to see the support band.

As my memory is not 100%, I am not sure if it was Raven or More than supported. I am quite sure it was the latter. There was a stage invasion and mini riot whilst they were on, pretty normal for a More gig. They were right rabble rousers.
