British rock photographer Ross Halfin's online diary entry for this past Monday, May 27th describes how he went to a record fair with Jimmy Page and played him Rush's Fly By Night in the car: May 27th: A very nice and sunny - and hot - Bank Holiday Monday. Did I sit in the garden and enjoy it? No, I drove to Jimmy Page's, picked him up and headed to Reading to the record fair. As I had Rush's Fly By Night in the car it was time for Jimmy to experience Anthem and Beneath, Between and Behind on the motorway. He liked the drumming and I did catch him listening to Alex Lifeson. Jimmy told me he liked La Villa Strangiato. ... Jimmy Page is one of Alex Lifeson's biggest influences. Alex talks about finally meeting his idol in this 2006 Guitar Player interview http://www.cygnus-x1.net/links/rush/guitar-player-03.2006.php Halfin has photographed a number of rock icons over the years including Rush. http://www.rushisaband.com/ http://www.rosshalfin.com/diary/may-2013/diary-may-2013.php http://www.cygnus-x1.net/links/rush/index.php

For the latest leg of the tour, Slade is joined again by vocalist Steve Glasscock, guitarist James Cornford (recently lead guitarist for Blaze Bayley) and keyboard player Michael Clark but this time is taking along with him, to complete the lineup, budding bass player Andy Crosby and vocalist Frank Knight, whom Slade has worked with on numerous projects around the world. The Chris Slade Timeline will continue to include unforgettable rock anthems from a varied set list devised from Slade's time with Tom Jones, Manfred Mann's Earth Band, Uriah Heep, The Firm, Asia, including a fair degree of AC/DC. Taking into account Chris Slade's illustrious and lengthy career, there is zero chance of ever running out of material!

Slade played on the 1990 "Razor's Edge" album, which included "Thunderstruck" receiving a Grammy nomination for his work. Slade toured with AC/DC for three years and it culminated in the release of "Big Gun", which was part of the "Last Action Hero" movie soundtrack starring Arnold Swarzenegger. Slade left the band when former drummer Phil Rudd was reinstated. AC/DC guitarist Angus Young has since been quoted as saying that Chris Slade was "the best musician in AC/DC."

Wow! Never seen it either! Thanks Steve!!

Everyone would gather on the 24th of May sitting in the sand to watch the fireworks display dancing fires on the beach singing songs together though its just a memory some memories last forever

Looking back at it, seeing him (Jimmy Page in The Firm) that soon after the disbandonment of Led Zeppelin was totally priceless.

I will finally be getting my hands on a DVD from 12/9/84 tomorrow morning, can't wait!
