Its good to share these pics,if you don't ask you don't get.I was talking to a guy on ebay and i asked him if he still had the ticket from the Ozzy gig that he'd been to.He emailed me the ticket which i have in my collection already, along with this photo.Which he is sending me to add to my collection. Cool.. :lol:

Another great photo Shaun.
This shot looks very similar to the photo's from the Hull City Hall gig five days earlier which I posted up last year.
Keep 'em coming mate.

Hi Gaz that was the first thing that i thought,the stage is set up the same as Hull plus Ozzy has the same stage clothes on aswell.I wonder why the number of Marshall stacks Randy used varies over this tour he used 3 during the 17 September Newcastle gig.3 for the 24 September Coventry.2 for the Hull 18 October and Ipswich 23 October gigs.Then back to 3 for the London Hammersmith 26 October.The only reason i can think for not using 3 stacks for all the tour is down to the stage size/area not being big enough to squeaze another stack onto the stage ?.

I love that poster 8)
Cologne she'll wear silver and americard, She'll drive a beetle car and beat you down at cool Canasta. And when the clothes are strewn don't be afraid of the room touch the fullness of her breast feel the love of her caress she will be your living end.

Goodbye to romance, yeah

:lol: what I like about these pictures, is the intimacy- it´s not the arena-type of stage setting yet, rather ballroom/big club thing...which I guess it really was...

Yeah Matt i go out of my way to get these photos. I don't think i have any more in my collection to share. I've posted the lot up, so i'm on the look out for more unseen pics. I'm mainly looking for 1980 UK tour photos, it just amazes me that so few are about. You'd think that the site would have every one's pics from the gigs they went to etc. They are like rocking horse shit, i only have photos from about 4 different UK dates. But if anyone has any to share please post them up.
