God, remember the Killer Dwarfs ? What a pile of shite they were. I saw them support Maiden twice on that tour. And their singer used to ride round stage on a tricycle. Daft twat. :lol:

Hi, i am researching 80's thrash gigs in London for a book. Does anyone remember an incident at a Kreator gig(think it was the Astoria) where ther was tear gas used on some fans in the front row. I remember it was a totally insane gig. Any help will be much appreciated plus any other gigs to loosen up the old memory banks!

Sorry to repeat myself but really need help with this one

At least he can remember who he has seen. I started going to gigs in '86 and can't remember half of them.


I wasn't slagging him (other than the old bit). Wish i had done the same as i have the same problem as yourself.

Aye, i saw them at that gig Scoob was at and the singer went on a wee wander across the tops of the seats in the first five rows of the stalls at the Edinburgh Playhouse. Nobody was really paying any attention to him :lol:

If iI remember correctly did the wee singer not climb up the PA at the side of the stage?

Aye, he did that as well. Not as funny as when Living Color got pelted with paper aeroplanes and plastic tmblers supporting Anthrax on the State Of Euphoria tour. Oh us classy Scots :lol:

They're just not as refereshing as lager.

There's an unseen fortune under their belts
Are golden temples a symbol of God's way
This horde of wealth is a sickening display"
