He turned round and said ‘sorry but I’m on in a minute’. It was Robert Plant! Not many people can say they were pushed out of the way by Robert Plant!
Other Herts gigs he remembers seeing are David Bowie and Elton John both playing separate shows at The Pavilion in Hemel Hempstead in 1972.
He also saw The Who at St Albans City Hall on November 22, 1968. You had to wear a shirt and tie to get in! said Tony. Also around that time, I saw the legendary bluesman John Mayall there. Apparently the staff wouldn’t let him, even though he was headlining, because he wasn’t wearing a tie!
