Brings back memories...

...Saw Paul Dianno's Killers, too. Took photos as was big Iron Maiden fan, got home and realised there was no film in the camera. Yes, kids, cameras used to have film in them! Fave band of all time, The Wildhearts, was the best. Watching their warm up, just me and a bloke with a dog. Like a personal gig. Had a beer/fags/chats after the show. Lots of crap bands too, mind...
