Do you have just the Thin Lizzy performance or the whole event? Because Dee Snider's opening line to the day was hilarious! "Fuck the rain! Let it rain on Duran Duran!" (Twisted Sister opened.) And the the jam during Meatloaf''s set with Brian Robertson of Motorhead (ex Thin Lizzy_ setting fire to his guitar was a gas...

[blacksabfan]

Just Lizzy's performance, although I'm sure many, if not all the others, circulate as well. I just don't collect much else besides Lizzy, Sabbath, and a few other things that strike my fancy.

[Oscha12]

I was at this show. More like Woodstock or Cal Jam. Lots of VW (smoking) buses and more beer than you could handle. Motorhead, Saxon, JP and I forget who else.

[blacksabfan]

Whitesnake. These gigs are the reason Sykes ended up playing with them after Thin Lizzy split.

I was at the show in Kaiserslautern a couple says before this show... Twisted Sister, Saxon, Motorhead, Blue Oyster Cult, Meatloaf, Thin Lizzy, and Whitesnake IIRC- not sure on the order though.... (Ozzy was supposed to be there but one of his kids- Aimee was born on 2 September)

[blacksabfan]

Kaiserslautern was the day before ;). That's a good show too. Got that one on cd-r as well. Didn't know that Ozzy was supposed to be there...thanks for that info. Thin Lizzy and Ozzy Osbourne...now that would of been something...

@Stormoftranquility Gosh I need to read these more often I just now read your note. I will check my pics and look for you (or the croud). lol. thats is so cool. It was so long ago. gosh I feel OLD. but this was such a good time. I should probably put some kind of video montage with all the pics.

I was there. We drove up from Stuttgart and camped out the night before. It was Twisted Sister, Saxon, Motorhead, Blue Oyster Cult, Thin Lizzy, Meatloaf and Whitesnake. Ozzy was supposed to headline and canceled last minute. It was a great day and concert!

Fuck you guys who say that they were in this concert with all these titans of rock. i hate u!! im jealous! :P I wasnt even born in 1983...:(

[Stormoftranquility]

@dinno459 Do you have any shots of a circle of men with a pregnant women in the middle - walking her through the crowds to the front of the stage to see Meatloaf? :) That would have been me!! lol I was 9 months pregnant and couldn't miss seeing Meatloaf, no matter what!! Plus the Hospital was just 2 KM away at Landstuhl. ....which is where I gave birth just 5 days after the concert, lol.

[bassistabe]

@dinno459 I would love to see them! make a video?

[dinno459]

I loved this concert, still have a bunch of pics from it. anyone interested? those were the days!!!!!

[ColtraneTaylor]

@irnmadn88 Duran Duran > tons of bands > Twister Sister. The guys in Lizzy liked Duran.

[NoRulesInNam]

Thunder and Lightning is my favorite Thin Lizzy album, honestly. Sucks that it was their last.
