We were in 122. Did you see Tom Wilson there with his kids?

Or some people that have lived in the Hammer for a while and remember these hometown hero's
Where were you? I had a couple old guys a few rows ahead of me too. They didn't even look like hip fans. Any song after UTH they had no idea what it was.
I was in section 121, row 13...based on their age, I'd say it's quite possible they could have been from Teenage Head :lol: (though one of them did have a Hip t-shirt on).

Tom Wilson was there as I had a short chat with him. Back in the 80's I was in the bar business and his band the Florida Razors were a mainstay at the Bridge in Burlington. He, like Teenage Head hail from the Hammer and are of the same vintage (like myself). I think the cover of Picture my Face was a tribute to the Head and all those from the Hammer!

Went to both the Hamilton show and London, Hamilton set list was stronger and the show was definitly better! Curious to see if they bring it tonight in TO?

I was there, probably my 9th or 10th time seeing them. I was a little disappointed with how In View translated live, and also Gord shouted during Good Life which didn't sound good. Gord seemed to really be on otherwise, it was a good show. Too bad it wasn't a Fri or Sat night so everyone could drink more!

Hamiltons music elite

Post by ianmac »

Tom Wilson was there with his kids on Pauls side, saw a member of the Head before the show, never put one and one together till the cover version, he was dressed in a long coat, and hat like stevie ray vaughn used to wear.... great show, though the sound was off a bit, gord tried a new mic and was motioning to the crew to turn it up or down a couple of times. 6 of us are heading to the HOB in Vegas to see them, we'll let you know about that, still tickets in NY at the Irving Plaza to see them if you want a small venue

I saw the guy you are referring to, I didn't know he was in Teenage Head, he looked like a punk rocker for sure though
