Rock Show Ads - Aerosmith - 7

Aerosmith - Deep Purple - Guns N' Roses - Giants Stadium - 8/16/88

This show was a mess.....Pete and I drove up from the Jersey shore to meet up with a couple more cousins (Scott & Kyle).....and we got to the show real late, just in time for Deep Purple...We had general admission floor....so the whole place was nuts.....during DP set some one lit off a Purple Flare in the lower seats.. also......

During the set break between DP & Areosmith we were standing next to the main light tower/sound board and we hear a loud "clang" off the metal by us....and a security guard picks up and shows us the table saw blade that hit the tower...

Next, ...Pete is almost hit by a empty quart bottle of Jack Daniels ...then some fucked up guy, that saw what happened, grabs the bottle and throws it toward the stage......crazy shit

Deep Purple "opening" for Aerosmith. Yeah, that "House Of Blue Light" album just didn't quite cut it, LOL.
