I've been a huge fan since I first saw them way back in '79 at Hammersmith supporting Rush and blowing them off stage !!

Mark

I saw Max Webster at the Hammersmith Odeon supporting Rush on their Hemispheres tour, (1979). As I recall they were very well received, which was unusual for support acts back then. I picked up a couple of albums (Magnetic Air and Hangover) as a result of seeing them.
