I was there, rigth at the very front on the barrier, and i always remember him runnign past trying to slap everyones hand and the thing that stuck out was the size of this green onyx ring he had on his right hand, i just looked at it and thoguth wow...
I was there! I think I was 18 at the time. Bon Jovi were very good. Great fireworks at the end too, but I'd really gone to see Metallica and Anthrax that day. They were superb.
I am from Germany and i was 18 years old when i visit this MOR in Castle Donnington. I flight alone from Düsseldorf to London and than with a train to Derby. That was the best Festival that i ever seen. Fantastic Bands great shows , 120.000 people and rain rain rain, whats up....
Wow, this was my first ever concert...What a blast that day was even though we were all soaking wet from the rain that went on all day I believe. I was almost 20 yrs old. 43 now. Thanks so much for posting this...
i was there too my first ever monsters of rock.....rain rain and more rain but i loved it...john ad a bad throat he said he was sorry....dint spoil ti for me i love every minuate
actually 3 people died in 88, one died during dl roth, a bouncer tried to get him to stop playing, dave said "get the fuck off my stage man" course he had no idea what was happening. The hoghlight of the jovi set was traveliling band, when bruce d, paul stanley and dee snyder sang too
I was there too, this show made me a Bon jovi fan. I was blown away (almost literaly by the pyrotechnics) by the show. I thought they were ok before the show but after i thought they were one of the best bands i'd seen. I only wish they had the same hard edge these days.
I was there in 87 & 88. The greatest gigs apart from the tragedy of 88. Bon Jovi as mentioned had voice problems but they were still brilliant. A long time ago noe though.
when they did monsters of rock back then his voice was completely shot to pieces after the long tour, so he probably sang it in the wrong key because he wasn't able to do it any more better...
Hey thanks for posting this. I was there, right at the front directly below Jon. It was a great show, Iv never seen any video of it till now. man this takes me back. Thanks
that's total shit mate. I was there and dio were fucking awful,worse than that they were like something from the lord of the rings with dragons,wankers.
Bon Jovi were fucking ace and cunts like you who like dio, are just to uptight to say they like bon jovi
Not shite mate i saw Bon jovi at Birmingham Odeon in 1985 (7800 degrees farenheit tour) & at donington in 85 probably before you had heard of em , I WAS a fan but they aint in the same league as RJD ,they r just a pop band , u twat
I disagree, we were there in '87 and Bon Jovi were shit. There was a pause in their show, and everyone fucked off. Then they re-started & no-one went back. They were complete toss!
Hi hAnD90. I was never able to go this festival 21 years ago and have ever since tried to see footage of it on VHD or DVD. So first of all thank you very much for sharing this. It is brilliant footage. Of course now I would love to see the whole gig or more if you have it. I would be happy to pay as well. Please let me know. Your a star!!!
Actually, "hAnD90", vocals were relatively great. Let Jonny-Boy try to sing even a percentage of this caliber today. Thanks for posting, Man. Awesome.
ignorante!, fue la unica epoca en que el vocalista perdio la voz por grabar discos y salir de extensas giras sin parar durante años, te recomiendo ver el concierto en fresno 2006, o un imperdible new jersey 2001, puro rock viejo!
Is there any chance of getting hold of the a copy of the complete show? I was there, It rained all day, but it was still a great day. It brings back great memories!! didn't have a clue it was even filmed. Thanks for posting this footage! A++

la voz de Jon es realmente mala en este concierto, se notaba el cansancio de la gira.
observen como sambora se acerca al minuto 00:40 para apoyar su voz.
