What a rockin' show. I saw them in '82 at Elland road, then in St James in '86 and though no one will ever match Freddie in any shape or form, Paul did a magnificent job and brought some of his fabulous reportoire to the show, which was appreciated by everyone.
By the way, the night was made even more special because I got Roger's drum stick and handed it straight to my drummer son, who's delighted face I will never forget.
Thanks for a fabulous evening.
Thats great, that is! I saw him hoy it into the crowd just to the left of me- I felt so jelous!!

By any chance was that kid called JOHN WATSON! cos he's a mate of mine at school! he showed me it today! battered to bits! shows how hard he drums like! (roger T i mean) i couldnt believe John was only that far away from me, i must of been feet away!
yes i know it was, but Roger threw one drum stick backstage and the other in the corwd, and me mate john had a drum stick battered to bits with the exact same things you said before on it! unless he quickly threw a spare aswell, i dunno!
I got the one he thru forwards from the end of the catwalk. Only a short throw cos there was only 2 people between me and the barrier.
I wondered what happened to the other one. Looks like the mystery is solved.
:-)
Our Roger must have 3 hands :-D, unless John W. got the one that went backstage.
Is there anyone from up a height can say how many he threw out front ?
I knew it right from the beginning... this tour is " only for the bucks they can make"! :-))
Poor old Roger... I still can remember the times when he was on Tour with the Cross... Roadies where throwing more than a dozen of "his drum sticks" into the audience after the show had finished... maybe they wanted us to leave the arena, dont know. :-))) Still have three of his sticks since May 1990 when they played in Berlin... The times they are a changing... ;-))
well i dont know then, all i know is me m8 has a drumstick which he "caught" after rogger threw it into the crowd, anyway! Back to the gig, any signs of audio yet?

I bow to you. Really that is awesome. Put it in a glass case to protect it but so you and your son can see it. How cool!
