After all these bands time for a break outside.

The Sweet with original member Andy Scott  (left) was the next band. They played a lot of their Chin/Chapman-hits, but a little bit heavier than the original version.

I believe I even heard the Peter Gunn theme. Phil Lanzon played for a short periode with this band.

And than came Slade with original member Dave Hill (guitar) and Don Powell (drums). The encore was unbelievable, 2500 people singin'  Merry X-mas at 40 degrees in August!!!!

The Slade setlist, with a happy Slade fan. They even came from Finland for this Slade gig.
