@bdp24 .

No TL did not, this was back in Blighty and I really do not recall who opened, obviously not anybody I was interested in or noteworthy .... Lol.

And yes being right in front of speaker stack I was deaf for 3 days and severe ringing and buzzing for quite some time after!

But was it worth it?
Heck yes!
@n80 - I love "White City". I bought the CD when it came out and recently bought the LP. I also found a 12" 45 single of "Face the Face", plus the live version of "Face the Face" from the "White City" movie. The sound quality on the 12" 45 is really good.

Have you seen the short movie of Pete Townshend's "White City"? You can find it on YouTube (in 2 parts). Worth an hour to watch, if you like Pete Townshend.
@reubent I have not seen that video. Will look it up.

Also, Desolation Boulevard was the second album I ever bought after BTO's Not Fragile. I think The Sweet is a somewhat overlooked band. Ever since then (junior high maybe?) I've been a bit of a glam rock fan. That's part of the reason I'm so crazy about The Struts. They don't mention Sweet as an influence but they sound like them and have covered Ballroom Blitz!
@slaw I had a short window for listening and then had to head out for the evening, sorry for the slow response. 
I will look for a copy of that box set. I will play a copy of Back in Black tonight to see if it is any better than the HtoH copy but I am not thinking it is going to be. 

To respond late to the AC/DC thread I kinda started...I grew up a huge fan of AC/DC but was always a little young for my folks to be ok with me going to see them alone. I was saving for tickets when Bon died and I was crushed, as HtH was in constant rotation from the time I heard it on "New Album Night at Midnight" and bought it the next morning when the record store opened. Almost too much 8 months later as I was saving for tickets for Zep and the news came about Bonzo. 1980 sucked.
