Rex, somewhere in Wigan, 1971 - the gig was filmed, and snippets of it appear in the doumentary Ringo directed, "Born to Boogie"......I didn't tell the parents I was going, you can imagine how gobsmacked I was when footage of that gig surfaced on Top of the Pops a couple of months later....."Hey Vic, there's a lad in the audience who's the spitting image of you....."

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[My first concert was also the best I've ever seen since.  The Father of Shock Rock,  Alice Cooper  :twisted:  .  I was all of eleven years old in '75 when my cousin asked me if I wanted to go with him and some other guys to the concert  :shock: .  I had never been to a concert before so I was unsure what to expect.  Welcome to My Nightmare had just been released so he was on tour for that album.  The show was complete with the guillotine, blood, scantily clad women, performers dressed up like black widows and huge balloons filled with money or pamphlets tossed out into the audience, and kick butt music.  Totally awesome experience.  Way ahead of its time for entertainment value.]]></content:encoded>
