Hooray, at Memorial Drive.

Perhaps the worst concert. Ever.

Mimed the whole show.

And The support act (Rose Tattoo) had a very "off" night as well.

Yes - my official worst concert ever whenever I'm asked.

First album - Abba (self titled)
First single - pretty hazy, but Ballroom Blitz and Crocodile Rock are right at the start.
First gig - Jo Jo Zep & the Falcons, Jimmy & the Boys and The Stockings at Monash Uni in 1981.
