Loved a lot of the stuff back then, Slade and Wizzard in particular along with Bolan. Today I still give them a listen, Bolan's "Dandy In The Underworld" and Slade's "Far Far Away" and "How Does It Feel?" right up there!
In 2002 I was at the opening night of "We Will Rock You" at the Dominion, probably the worst thing I've seen on a stage in 40 odd years. The first night party was over the road at the Astoria ( with it's sound effect carpets) and was the worst first night party I've ever been to. Basically a load of s**t 70's & 80's has been's, singing equally s**t 70's & 80's songs! Tony Hadley sings Toto, I kid you not! Then in the middle of it all on strode Roy Wood and blew every fecker else out of the building!
