A couple of things concerning the Groups I have seen in concert, probably the Worse Group I saw was The Dazz Band, they played like a Rock Band! you would have never of guessed they were a Funk/Soul Band to hear how they played!One thing that did happen during this Concert what I always remembered, I was taken short and needed the Toilet, so my Wife stood waiting outside, when I was followed into the Toilet by this Black Chap, my Wife said she was worried about what was going to happen! was I about to get my head kicked in!
As it turned out, the Chap was Wayne Foote of Slave , he sung Lead and Backing Vocals on 2 of Slave's Album's in '83 and '84, the Bad Enuff (Wayne Foote, 3rd on the left) and New Plateau albums.
I had worn my Slave T-Shirt at the Dazz Band Concert and he had seen it and came over just to say hello, he as I remember was a nice chap and he talked for a few minutes about Slave and the Dazz Band, he also signed a book I had, and he also agreed about The Dazz Band being to Rocky!
I wonder what happened to Wayne Foote, I have looked on Web, but not much info!
Nice site my uncle was had some hits back in the 70's, will tell him about this place.

Oh wow, you're amazingly lucky to have been able to see Slave! They're absolutely my favourite band too, but were prominent way before my time. Needless to say, I obtain all of their records (Except the compilations). By the way, on the Bad Enuff front cover, do you know which one on there is Eugene Jackson? Eugene Jackson was supposedly the singer and producer of the song, "Bad Girl".
