That's the caption that was on the website that photo came from. Your input is welcome and duly noted. Thanks.
I'm pretty sure that pic is from backstage at one of Bowie's 1983 Southern California shows. (Can't recall if he played LA or Anaheim - too lazy to check!) No way that's Courtney Love - too unknown back then, and she was only 19, whereas the woman in the pic is clearly older than that. Whoops - looks like Mr. Walnutz got the answer!
Not meant as slight; apologies if it came off that way. Ironically, given the incorrect caption, Jimi DID make his last public appearance before his death with Eric Burdon and War at Ronnie Scott's club in London.
I was there, as were dozens of photographers, but I've yet to find myself in the background of a Kurt photo. It would earn me hundreds of cool points from my kids.
Why is it that most of the photos in this great thread are captioned when it's totally obvious (McCartney/Bowie) yet the more obscure ones are not? Caption, people, caption -- no matter how obvious it is. Toss in the year if you know it.
By any chance, is this from The Fast Lane in Asbury Park? If so, I was at that smokin' Stray Cats show...
Tough to tell because the pic's small, but that looks like Jon Bon Jovi with McCartney on the right. Not sure about the 2 on the left...
