Back to the sixties. The Animals with two youngsters
and longtime member Mickey Gallagher at the keyboards
and alltime member John Steel at the drums. The Animals are famous because of their version of The house of the rising sun, which was played as the encore
The all so did play Don't let me misunderstood and other hits.
After all these bands time for a break outside.
Picture taken by Bouwe as a proof that I was really there.
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.
