I always liked the drum kits Nick Menza played in Megadeth like these Tama ones:

Of all the bands for your first concert I had to go and see Megadeth. Aged 13, So Far...So Good...So What... tour.

Someone jumped/moshed off the upstairs balcony and broke their legs. Metal concerts were banned from the Olympic Ballroom after that. They let raves happen though.

Mustaine was pissed but still able to technically do it. Saw the Rust In Piece tour three years later and although good went to see Alice In Chains who were supporting.

Ooh nice. Were they good? Wouldve loved to have seen Layne sing.

'Rust In Piece'

brilliant!🤣

dasdog · 20-08-2022 09:16AM

They were okay - kind of did it by the numbers but the songs were so good and that voice. I heard Layne ended up in the Pink Elephant/Renards after trying to score coke with 20 and 50 pence coins he must have been so out of it.

odyssey06 · 26-08-2022 06:02PM

Baby don't hurt me!

Haddaway, worried by his head-throwing high-kicking backing dancers... some near misses already.

Welsh Megaman · 26-08-2022 06:06PM

Jordan 199 · 26-08-2022 06:15PM

A-ha. The sun always shines on their TV's.

odyssey06 · 26-08-2022 06:17PM

Confused... Aha... with a slow song... in 1993...

odyssey06 · 26-08-2022 06:18PM

PM Dawn... Boy George... Disneyland... random but let's roll with it.

Welsh Megaman · 26-08-2022 06:20PM

George, Papa Smurf wants his hat back.

Most weeks I record one or both episodes of the repeated Top of the Pops on BBC4. It is currently on 1993. I had originally stopped watching Top of the Pops on a regular basis around 1987, so this is effectively first time viewing for me! It has the added advantage of being able to skip the bits of the show that I have no interest in. I have a number of reservations about the "Breakers", which were first introduced in the late 1980s. The biggest one of all is when they included a highly placed song in the Breakers, such as the aforementioned Jelly's Three Little Pigs, which was the highest entry that week, when they had first time full performances of songs further down in the charts. Why did they do that kind of thing? Why not have the lower placed song in the Breakers instead?
