Being a music head from way back I enjoy watching the old rock festivals such as Woodstock etc. Saw a new one on SBS the other night dated about this time thirty years ago and in Canada. The Festival Express. Group of musos such as the Grateful Dead, the late, great Janis Joplin, Sha Na Na etc. travelling around Canada on a train for a week and holding rock concerts. Interesting part was the riots it caused with patrons wanting free entry to the concerts. Who can remember this and what was your part.

Couldn't hear a damned thing over the racket from the piston engines of the Yukon...
