Castle Donington, the home of Heavy Metal. I always had fun at these festivals. The atmosphere the night before was always one of anticiption and excitement for the next day as a sea of tents would appear overnight.
This was to be Doningtons biggest attended gig. All the bands were good with Dave Lee Roth coming up tops in the support bands stakes.
As with all Doningtons that I went to, the bonfires would be lit at dusk. Anyone going to these gigs will know that plastic bottles of bodily fluid would be thrown as well. It was a case of ducking and diving.
