Lucky b'stard. The world is badly needing a Bob right now. I get a lump in my throat watching him sometimes. A true legend if there ever was one.

Was overwhelmed at the time, decided to do it on a whim, managed to get tickets by post pre internet days, didnt dare tell me mam, so did it on the sly.
Was also lucky as the Manchester gig was cancelled.
Can still remember the little black fella coming on stage and doing a very basic intro, " Ladies and gentlemen, all the way from Trenchtown Jamaica, lets hear it for Bob Marley & the Wailers".
