the Scorpions & Bum Jovi. I will watch it tonight and give MHO.

| Well Westford doesn't even have PAY PER VIEW!!!! Gimme a break!!
Did Motley Crue do any of their new stuff??
I listened to most of it and the sets seemed short. I missed
some Crue and Ozzy but I thought it sounded good from what I heard.

| I agree that the show wasn't all that great up until the Scorpions
came on. I also enjoyed the Crue and Bon Jovi. Ozzy didn't sound
that bad! All in all I guess it was worth watching.

Klaus and the boys play in Russia a lot, so I am sure he knows some
Russian. The performance by the Scorps says a lot about them.
They kicked butt (or so I hear) during the Monsters tour, and they
kicked butt in Russia.

632.7 | Oh well, the effort was there | BUFFER::GOLDSMITH | | Mon Aug 14 1989 20:14 | 14 |
| As an ex-Russian tourist, I can tell you that the Russians speak
more English than you think. Especially the kids. Probably about 75%
of the kids speak fairly fluent, and those were the people at the show.
Not much new music was played by anyone mostly because most of the
people who had the good fortune to get a rare American tape, chances
are it was an older one.
As far as the concert, I heard it on the radio, and I thought it
stunk for the most part. The Scorpions, I have to agree were the best
act. Followed by Bon Jovi, Motley Crue, Ozzy, and a mess between
Cinderella, Skid Row, and Gorky Park. Did you hear the keyboards on
Ozzy's Crazy Train? I almost puked.
Oh, and it was Jason Bonham on drums for the jam at the end.

632.8 | My opinions of the event | PFLOYD::ROTHBERG | Ludicrous speed ... GO!!!! | Tue Aug 15 1989 02:52 | 21 |

scorps definately ruled the event, both in sound
and performance. bon jovi came next though it
was not even a close second place. motley crue
was awful, vince looked and sounded like he was
tired and out of breath even before the end of
the first song. Ozzy's voice kept cracking,
Cinderella [as much as I don't like their music]
was better than both the previous bands I
mentioned. Gorky and Skid Row ... ugh,
horrible. I did think it somewhat amusing when
Cinderella was trying to get the crowd to sing
and there was dead silence when it was their
turn. So he tried it again, but turned to the
camera before doing so and said, "This is HIGHLY
experimental."
Cheers, Rob

632.9 | A few thoughts | NEEPS::IRVINE | The Thing That Should Not Be | Tue Aug 15 1989 08:38 | 10 |
| Most of what I had to say has already been said! But, was it my
imagination or did Richie Sambora's vocals sound better than JBJ.
I was more than a little disappointed with BJ playing only 4 songs,
and the abscence of JBJ during the jam at the end. To me the MVP
goes to The Scorpions & Richie Sambora. It was good to see Jason
Bohnam, but sadly he is never going to be the Drummer that his father
was.(IMHO)

Hey Bonzo, whenever I've seen BJ I've always been more impressed
with Ritchie Sambora's vocals than JBJ.
