They did, i have the bootleg thanks to my fellow admin trig, and they probably recorded the full show. probably sitting in someones office in a dusty box!

hey Ivar
great to see you on site and taking part again

. Ill have to get out the CD itself, unless my fellow admin can give you one of the top of his. It was basically the usual track list, but i cant remember whether it was the bark at the moon set list.

Was Bark at the moon released yet at that time? 'Cause the US Fest was one of Jake's first shows with Ozzy, wasn't it?

BATM was not written yet and the US festival was 5 months after Jake joined Ozzy. It was Bobs first gig back with Ozzy since he and Lee were sacked in 1980 he was asked back to write and record BATM but agreed to join earlier when the band were left with no bassist and with the US festival only days away.

US festival 29th May 1983
BATM recorded in Britain summer 1983
BATM British tour November 1983 (I was there on the first night

)
BATM released December 1983
