I still remember the staff coming around with buckets of sand so that the cigs could be extinguished. Also, Ozzy's keyboardist almost in the parking lot (not quite as bad as the Who having theirs under the stage).

Recovered???????? Sounds like a GREAT night.
I just got back from a wedding. The singer didn't turn up so they asked if I'd do a turn. The band were OK and had a pretty good repetoire so I thought why not!!!!
Looking at the average age of the party I thought it better to start off with some........you guessed it Barry Manilow tunes. They went down OK as did the Sinatra, but when we kicked in with "Light my Fire" the place went nuts!! I've never seen so many grooving grannies........excellent!!!! The band could manage Fleetwood Mac's Green Manaleshi and we ended up with Arnold Layne and See Emily Play. My friends daughter (who's wedding it was) started off REAL embarrased but ended up grooving with the rest of them.
I loved it. No more offers of gigs but a good time anyway.
