I was there, all of 14, thanks to my buddy's dad who got us backstage passes, we saw the show from a riser on the side, right above the OD tent. I remember the bumper cars, the quaaludes running around on stage during the Tubes "White Punks on Dope", and of course Alice Cooper's "School's Out" ending. Epic day!
I can't begin to convey the thanks for posting thin!!!! The amount of time spent trying to rent this "no longer available" VHS from my local Rite Aid is still unimaginable. Who the hell is Alice?!?!
I was there and the Kinks who played before Alice, stole the show and they aren’t even mentioned. I did go to the show to see Alice though. The Tubes were great, I remember a giant mirror fell on Quaylude, they bandaged him up, Put him on crutches and he sang “White Punks on Dope”, Nazareth were great too.
Was there and remember garbage being thrown at Nazareth. Also, as another post here points out, it's true The Tubes were not well received and endured the garbage as well. As far as Alice being drunk, guess I didn't notice by the time he hit the stage because our group was partaking in various nefarious substances as well!
Strange introduction for The Tubes. I wonder what their whole set was like. They would play covers but mostly original material. I wonder if Quay Lewd was a little too close to Cooper's behavior at this point for White Punks On Dope to be included?
I was there and I was a big tubes fan but they were booed throughout the set and even cursed the audience. They didn’t do their normal show but had long dancing sequences advertising their NOW album. Weird day.
What was this concert called? a day on the green because I have been looking for this alice cooper concert for years but can't find the full version because they have edit it out
