Title: "The Worst Gig We Ever Played"
Post by: Limey on August 05, 2011, 09:35:11 am

Interesting stories.  Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull can't decide whether it was worse having piss poured on him at Shea Stadium or being hit in the larynx with a baseball in Phillie.  I also enjoyed reading that bands used to get danger money to play in Scotland...

We were in this brand new room with parquet flooring, and this fight broke out. I'd never seen anything like it – 1,500 people, everybody punching everyone else: men punching men, men punching women, women punching men, women punching women … it was like the Wild West.
