One of the fondest memoriesĀ i have of my dad was seeing him up there watching the show….even though he didn’t have a ticket ! My dad had “the gift of the gab” & would soon befriend people. ( Years later, i’ve realised that i’m very similar to me dad. When i go to gigs, i’ll always end up talking to someone who i don’t know….& sometimes, they end up being friends for life šŸ˜‰ ) Over the course of taking us to shows at De Montfort, he got to know the door security. Well, for this show they let him in ! (Actually, he might have got in for others,but, i always remember him saying he enjoyed this show)

Dio, Queensryche , @ De Montfort Hall,Leicester 2-10-84

Great line up & great gig apart from Dio cutting show short because someone threw something up onstage or something. Honestly, why ruin it for everyone else? I lost a lot of respect for Dio after this gig. By coincidence, there were some other people from Boston, who we didn’t really know, at this gig. One of them got kicked out after throwing soap (?) during Queensryche (Winnie, care to elaborate?)
