Best ever gig?

Great to read the replies and realise that most of NESA has the same musical tastes as me (if that is a good thing lol)

Feel guilty admitting that I didn\'t mention the 1982 Mob Rules Black Sabbath tour at the City Hall and the 1981(?) Rush Hemispheres World Tour.

Used to roadie for \"The Brat Pack\" and \"White Knight\" for the Shields lads who get to the Office or anybody who used to get to that pub in \"No Place\" - the something mary???

Alanf - who was your favourite Ozzy guitarist??

White Knights drummer, Mark Winter used to be my brother in law and I went to school with him and Darren Cooper. Remember Phil Farrel from his Mandora days. My other ex brother in law, Paul Binyon, (another from Chuter Ede Comp) used to sing and play bass in Cover Story.

Everyone remembers Randy Rhodes as their favorite Ozzy guitarist (including me) but what about the grandaddy of heavy metal, Tony Iommi? I can still play most of the old Sabbath stuff and it still rocks!
 
rob its a small world m8 i no paul aswell cracking singer but cant play a bass to save his life i remember when the three of them left school and were in a band called polaris
 
I like Iommi but that was Sabbath,I wonder how good/successful Randy Rhodes would have been if he was still alive.

My mate at work really like The Force,we were just talking about them the other day,he says they don\'t play in this area much now
 
alan if you get the chance go and see them they play a lot of lizzy rush and phil does a good job of satrianis always with me always with you
 
I remember Polaris,seen them somewhere unless some other band have the same name,probably early 80s I would guess
 
alan dont no what there doing at the moment they play all over the place they used to do the lord clyde in shields quite regular havent seen them myself for awhile now
 
The Force played the City Hall on the 10th of December with Back in Black (AC/DC tribute) and Maiden England (Iron Maiden tribute).

Ray, do you know the Buckies (Mark and Ian?) (Fairweather Johnson, The Brat Pack, Fair Warning, Sweet and Innocent?)
 
Couldn\'t make the gig on the 10th dec Rob. Was it Maiden England or Sticky Fingers that played with them, can\'t remember now. My son said it was a great gig.
