Cheap entrance fee for such a stellar line up.

Only just noticed this one. I was at that gig. Brilliant day's music superb weather. I went with a gorgeous girl called Stephanie, from High Wycombe. Argent were on too and there was me, a young keyboard player watching a show with Keith Emerson, Tony Banks, Rod Argent and Thys van Leer, unbelievable! There was also a French prog band on first, called Ange, and they were really good too and another band called Fudd, who I don't remember. I'm pretty sure Jack Bruce made a guest appearance with one of the acts but can't remember which one, might have been Focus! But then it was over 50 years ago

Also, maybe Stephanie took your mind off the music?
