Judas Priest ticket from the 1983 tour to support ‘Screaming for Vengeance’ at the long gone Glasgow Apollo. Support was from Quiet Riot who were having major success in the US with the ‘Metal Health’ album.
This was Black Sabbaths first concert in Georgia. It was also my first concert, I was never quite the same. After this, it’s like I heard everything with new ears. I was transformed.
How did I come by this priceless rare ticket? I went to a record fair at Birmingham NEC back in 1994 and bought a first pressing of Black Sabbath's first album for £25. When I got it home to examine it this ticket was inside the sleeve. How lucky am I?
This Night Changed My Life!!!
