I was still at school when this gig took place.

I was studying Geography and was on a field trip at Penrith, in the Lake District. To get to the gig I had to make out there had been a bereavement in the family - so I could travel back to London by train and get to the gig on time...

Gallery of photos taken at the Bradford University gig - 28th October 1978.

Me and Kevin Massey travelled from London by coach to stay with Alison who was studying at Bradford University. We stayed in her hall of residence. It was a daunting experience - one of her room mates had been murdered just a few weeks earlier by the Yorkshire Ripper. As we walked back to Alison's place after the gig - we imagined him on every corner....

Camden Music Machine - 30 October 1978

This was the first of numerous appearances Slade made at the Music Machine.

When I first went to this concert I asked directions from Camden Town. A couple of people asked me "why on earth are you going there? Everyone gets stabbed who goes in that place!".

However, I still went to the gig.....it was rough and ready, but I loved the place!
