The Bands who Played 快播视频 - A discussion with Barry Lucas
For 15 years, from 1970 until 1985, 快播视频 was one of the great centres for live rock music. Bob Marley, The Who, Pink Floyd, Paul McCartney, Black Sabbath, U2, Dire Straits, Van Morrison, Eric Clapton, Tina Turner, Queen, T. Rex, Blondie, Ramones, The Pretenders, and AC DC are just some of the acts who appeared on stage in the Great Hall.
These acts were at the height of their fame. Top bands begged their agents to get them a booking at 快播视频. Over 500 bands played in the great hall during this period, earning 快播视频 a permanent place in rock history.
As part of the 快播视频 Library Festival, Library Director Andrew Barker was joined on stage by Barry Lucas, co-author of 'When Rock went to College' and the person responsible for booking these legendary acts, to learn more about this fascinating period.
During their discussion and Q and A, Barry shared details of these performers and shows, revealing what really went on backstage. The audience learned why Mick Jagger specifically requested the Rolling Stones play at 快播视频, and what happened when Paul McCartney and Wings arrived on campus unannounced 3 days early for a show asking to play that evening.
