NOTE 1:
The rest of the band hired a model who had recently been voted
"Miss Metal".
During the concert, she came on to dance around Bruce in a
bikini, knee high boots,
long PVC gloves and holding a whip with handcuffs haning from her
belt.
After she done her stuff Bruce came up to her and ripped her top
off, leaving her topless in front of the crowd.
She took Bruce to court, but it was settle out of court. Bruce
said in the book "Running Free" that it was worth every
penny.
NOTE 2: This is the
night when Bruce recorded the argument between Nicko & Steve,
that later became "Mission From ´Arry"
NOTE 3: Please note that
"Coney
Hatch" & "Axe" was special guestat the 3 last shows,
this due to the re-scheduled concerts in September..
