ozzy in the ulster hall,cant mind the year,sometime in mid 80's.  saw him 3 times in about 2 years.great performer,sad to see him trying to perform now

Tony Iommi was on Newstalk the other day saying they've been playing together again. New material and a tour being rumored. Would have liked to see them back in the day but now I can't imagine Ozzy being up to it. Or Bill Ward for that matter from last I heard he had heart problems.

You are bad, but Buster Bloodvessel is still cool after all these years. Bad Manners concerts have been up there with the best I've attended over the past 25 years.

Ahh Sams you are missing a trick here - great band and as Ulick says their gigs are up there with the best I've been to . Did you have a spikey mullet back in the day when you were going to Howard Jones gigs  ;D

That's it although it was known as Spookys then.

There wasn't much Pink Pussy about for me at that time.

First concert was Status Quo in Dalymount Park in 79. Left home at 3 on the Friday morning to cycle to Dublin  (120 mile - the Maracycle hadn't even been dreamt of). I was 17 and the other lad was 15. We were as mad as hatters.

Saw AC/DC in the Ulster Hall that year with Bon Scott. Great concert. Saw UFO in the Ulster Hall as well.
Went to numerous concerts and festivals in the 80s.
Reading 1980, Donnington 81 and 85, Slane 81,82,83,85 and 87. Great times - old and settled now.
Last couple of concerts were UFO and Nazareth in the Spring & Airbrake.

Worked with a fella from Attical on a building site many moons ago and he had some choice stories to tell about Slane 87 that couldn't be repeated on a public forum :D
