Pretty similar for me - without the chemicals (unfortunately?): First BOC
gig, same period, their first actual tour of the UK, Manchester Free Trade
Hall; a lot of the detail has blurred by now, but I remember them kicking
off with "Stairway to the Stars", I remember "ME262" & the 5 guitars, but
most of all, that refrain of "..and the jokes on YOU!" haunted me for ages
- and I never understood why Stairway & Telepaths weren't on OYFOOYK.
(Note: I never even knew what the title of "Flaming Telepaths" was until I
eventually bought ST a year or two later!)
Cheers,
