Posted: Sat Jun 26, 2010 8:52 pmHi,
Well I would have liked to but there were too few tickets and also I was at an age that would not allow me to get in anyway as the show was at a bar that served alcohol.
I have seen the whole concert on video many years later
I happened to have a friend that supplied me with it from what Swedish Television recorded.
At the time only a short clip was shown on public television.
Oh yes I was 12 and rented a guitar and tube amp from a gypsy and strummed my first sounds with my right hand outof an electric guitar and the sound that came out was that of distortion and it started an urge to play more and learn what to do with the left hand fingers? This would live with me for the rest of my life: conquer or give up!
A few months later I was playing 5 hours a day.
Yes I still enjoy listening
Have fun
BJ

Posted: Mon Jun 28, 2010 12:02 amFunny, I've been a huge Beatle fan since I was about 8 years old, and Sgt. Pepper's was the 1st LP I "discovered" from my parents record collection. My brain was coded by these awesome songs and great guitar sounds...then later on, thanks to my cousin who was a few years older, turned me onto to Kiss and Zep, Sabbath, and the Who, then Aerosmith and the guitars got heavier and heavier...then in the midst of late 70's FM radio album rock, and the whole disco sucks era, this Pepto Bismol colored album comes along by the Sex Pistols...the name of the band bad-ass enough, especially back in the day(makes Guns 'n Roses and Hole sound tame).
And there my cousin and I sat while we blasted this guitar heavy punk mayhem fronted by a scrawny freak named Johnny Rotten, and it was all about this ATTITUDE...this f$%k you attitude that was absolutely palpable....GOD SAVE THE QUEEN...we mean it maahhhn!
