Bon Jovi supporting Kiss at Queens Hall Leeds 13/10/84

Lamb of God & Iced Earth supporting Heaven and Hell (Sabbath with Dio) at Sheffield Arena 07/11/07

:ROCKS:
I also saw Anthrax supporting Metallica but i saw the Manchester Apollo gig. That was when Metallica were peaking anything they have ever done since has been a decline. It was only a couple of weeks later Cliff Burton was killed, what a waste of talent.

I saw they when they released Ride the Lightning and the tour with Anthrax was Damage Inc (from Master of Puppets) a couple of years later which IMO was their peak. The "black" album was huge granted, but after that it was sadly a decline on the recording front. Still great to see live though. :ROCKS:

Ah, forgot the "Justice for All" tour - yes that was decent - agreed. Also "Death Magnetic" showed glimpses of a return to form on the recording front. Lets agree to forget about "Lulu".

Best : Blackfoot supporting Scorpions about 1980
Worst : By crowd reaction I'd go for Girl fronted by Phil Lewis (L.A. Guns) playing to a KISS crowd @ New Bingley Hall, Stafford around 1980. They played a cover of Kiss' "Do You Love Me?" and people were trying to spit at them from everywhere. I've never seen so much gob! I thought they were a decent band though. Perhaps the crowd were peeved that Iron Maiden (when they were REALLY good) were the support everywhere else apart from Stafford.

I saw Cooper Temple Clause support Muse at Leeds Uni in 2001 and they literally blasted everyone away

Aye but no original members although Ricky Medlocke is managing the band.

Conflict with Steve Ignorant at the Adelphi Hull late 80's I think.
