It would have been just time, and a lot of shoving and bladder-holding, since this was a general admission show. But I imagine they got away with it because it was GA...paying seats wouldn't have stood for it! :lol:

The NEW Sony StuporCam for 1983...a mere $10,000 per camera, and it weighs only 200 pounds!

*Please* don't inundate me with copy requests - I'm sending one to a fellow nutter in the US next week, and to one in Europe. I'll help out my local comrades also. It will get around ASAP, the love will be shared.


Please, don't shout me... Is it possible one copy to Latinamerican region? :roll: I adventure trying my request, if not I understand :oops:

That would be fantastic, Krokodyle! Thank you!!! Since you were there, too, I'm sure you remember it was an amazing show. It sure had an impact on me.

This blog brought back a lot of memories (except I'm pretty certain they did NOT play ELTSDIM):

Hello to everyone,
my copy is crossing the ocean and I hope it will arrive...soon!!!
Anyway this is its cover, even if I think that there is a mistake about date.
I'll keep you informed...

here's another photo, evidently from the same show, found via flickr - looks like midori is to be credited

photo from Japanese magazine - black t-shirt
so far I've only seen him wearing this t-shirt in photos from the 1983 LA concert

This is an awesome discovery. I must say the nosebleed seats some of you others had were closer than mine. I was up in the glass seating area. Sorta center.

Hi folks,

something's stuck in my throat again...***COUGH***COUGH***

I'm located in Germany and would be more than happy to pass this one along to other European nutters. :P

So let me know,
Rüdiger

P.S. To make it clear: I'm LOOKING for the DVD, I don't have it right now...
