Hey Lindsay,
You missed a good one. The long day started with Davie Allan and the Arrows, who were OK but marred a bit by poor early sound. The bands were on a huge revolving stage and for the first six or seven the stage turned as one band finished their couple of songs and the other band started. Of course the stage broke down as the Fondas were coming on and didn't work for the rest of the day causing small gaps between the songs whihc a selction of MCs tried to fill with tedious and embarassing banter - they would have been better leaving a silnce between bands. Celebrity MCs include Kim Fowley - mostly great, carried the show really - Edd Kookie Byrnes - painfully bad ,eemed a bit senile really and BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN - FUCKIN' BROOOCE! Oh yeah and some guys from the Sopranos - I don't know what that is about. Highlights were the Richard and The Young Lions with the recently deceasd Richard Tepp's 15 year old son filling in for him, Nancy with Clem Burke on drums, The Dictators who lifted the day out of inteminable three chord garage rock recreations, New York Dolls seemed to be having a genuinely good time and of course the show closers - Iggy & The Stooges. 100 time rowdier than when I saw them in glasgow a couple of months ago, the Stooges were truly awesome. Anyway, I said hi to Handsome Dick for ya, he say take care a yasself. Hope Amy Allison was good too.
Cheers, Colin
