Pauly ≫ Gigography ≫ 1991 ≫ Monsters of Rock 1991
Castle Donington Donington Park Raceway,
AC/DC, Metallica, Motley Crue, Queensryche, and the Black Crowes. A pretty special line up at the top of the bill, shame it was the shortest Donington bill ever. Got a coach up from Portsmouth, everyone on the coach brought a metal mix tape with them for the coach driver to play (remember cassette tapes?), every single one had Enter Sandman on it.

I've had this one misdated as the fifth of August for a long time, sorry about that!
I attended this one, more from this year in my gigography for 1991. I saw AC/DC probably 3 times; Monsters of Rock 1991 @ Castle Donington (1991), Hammersmith Odeon ('03), + AC/DC (Bedlam In Belgium) @ festivalpark stenehei (2024), though I still have some bragging tagging to do so this may go up. Part of all the gigs I went to from '87 to 2024. A natural step from my Best gigs of all time blog post. Yeah I know very geeky, let's let that go though, I'm enjoying remembering these things.
