The Marquee
90 Wardour Street
4th June 1976
The hot summer of 76 me and Age got the train to London to
see the hotest rock band around AC/DC the sweat was poring
from the walls, the PA packed up half way through the set
after about ten minutes Bon Scott came out and announced
that Angus was going to do a guitar solo until they fixed the
PA so he climbed onto Bon’s shoulders and walked into the
crowd with the crowd holding up the lead he went nuts on his
guitar sweat spraying everywhere from his nodding head!
At some point after this Age brought a couple of pints of
larger which he poured one of them overs his own head and at
50p it was expensive only about 35p at our local!

29th October 1977
Bad start to this gig turned up at the Commodore Pub about 6pm and
Mick and Age were already out of their heads, and Mick was driving,
after a lot of arguing I decided wasn’t getting in the Car (Mk 1
Cortina).
Eventually got a train there AC/DC were already on, saw a couple of
numbers while trying to see if Mick and Age had made it! The place was
heaving, at some point went outside the Hall probably for a leak and
Age and Mick were slumped against the Bar, think they had been
ejected from the hall they could hardly stand.
I left not long after to get the train home, Age and Mick slept in the
Car, when they found it!!
