mike stehr Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Not many bands have that many exceptional musicians. Yup. Seen them in the round back in '78...one of the best shows I can recall. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigStewMan Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 (edited) Mike, i saw that same tour…fabulous. i was able several years ago to talk about that revolving stage with Rick Wakeman. That was the Tormato tour. Rick told me that he loved that stage; but, he really liked the revolving stage that they used on the Union Tour (it was much bigger). High calibre musicians those guys.
