  1. I thought it was late '78 when I saw them but just googled and it must have been Feb 1979 which was Strangers In The Night Tour.
  2. Can we have a poll please mods ? Good TA debate of current times when we've been blessed with best competition for No.1 jersey in my life time. Goram/Leighton 2 of the best ever but to have 3 to chose from !?
  3. I wasn't allowed to go to this one in Glasgow as I was too young (no pun intended) but my brother and some of his mates went (pre WC Argentina)
  4. You may well be right but (after googling it for my memory) the 1978 tour was an AC/DC tour. Friend of my brother's went to see Black Sabbath in Aberdeen around 1977/78 and the support band was Van Halen and I imagine they would have been pretty spectacular as a support band too. PS - young whippersnapper !
  5. Still wears but looks a bit weird these days maybe, but it wouldn't be the same without it. I think he started wearing because he joined AC/DC when he was 15/16 yrs old and still at school (Malcolm's wee brother drafted in).
  6. The tour I meant was AC/DC tour of their own (possibly Let There Be Rock 1977 or 1978?). I didn't know they had supported UFO - must have been an earlier tour ? Just coincidence that, UFO tour was my first ever gig (I think that was late '78 or early '79). Ended up seeing them 3 times. It wasn't until about 15 years ago that I eventually got to see AC/DC live (Aberdeen EXhibition Centre) and delighted to say I'm going to Hampden in June to see them again. Just checked - must have been Powerage May 1978 when I was P7 and got see UFO later when I was 1st year secondary school. http://www.ac-dc.net/archives/subcategory.php?subcategory_id=42
  7. I was 11-12 when they played Caird Hall in Dundee but wasn't allowed to go. 6 months later I was allowed to go to my first gig to see UFO. Still gutted I missed ACDC - the difference of a being a few months older.
  8. Cracking. Used to go to Pandora many, many years ago until Ferry became the option. Great atmosphere, live music, beer (with good bar service), fast food and big enough to be busy but not cramped.
  9. Can't be JT anyway as the guys aren't fully stripped up including shin pads.
  10. There are usually a few good candidates every 2 years but sometimes the time seems right for one above the others (who will get their time too). Seems like a good call.
  11. Used to go regularly with HebTA but not managed many home games in last 5 years so not been for a while. If you've not been then GO! Fantastic pre match party.
  12. I've gone for a very wee long shot double of Basle & Schalke @29/1
  13. Or this ? My wife told me to stop impersonating a flamingo. I had to put my foot down.
  14. May have posted this a while back....... How do you turn a duck into a soul singer? Put it in a microwave until it's bill withers
  15. I assume you mean address no problem. Cheers tooting dave and everyone else for all the replies.
