Not perfect. Never claimed to be.

I saw Aerosmith twice, in 1989 and 1993.


We saw Aerosmith on their first visit to the UK. They played Reading Festival and were booed off the stage, with beer cans filled with urine being thrown at them.


1977 ?
That was a bad year for them at festivals all over the States too.
They were at the height of their substance abuse then. Only four years into their recording career, too. It took ten years to clean up and get back on track.

It was a GALLON container full of used beer that smacked me on the back of the head at Reading 87, also ten years later, that lead me to have a year off festivals in '88, try Glasto in '89 and '90, and wind up in Cropredy later in '90.

Funny how things work out.


It was indeed 1977.

The beer cans filled with urine included Party Sevens.

New album from Julianne and Tim (All About Eve).  It's rather gorgeous...  Digital only so far.

It is rather lovely.

There's a Christmas single floating around too that'll be nice again in about 6 months time.

Reading 87 was good fun on the whole. 88 was a terrible, terrible festival.

My tall friend Simon and I used to stand back to back during the intervals between sets, so we could fend off projectiles at 80s festivals...
