I'm going to post a couple of concert pictures from the 80s tours in this thread, starting with:

Couple of pictures from their concert in Eilenriedehalle, Hannover, Germany on December 3rd 1986. Interesting to see Jon wrapped in the US flag during the European leg, it makes me question if these really are from Hannover though I find the stage a bit too small for it to be an arena.

Two pics from their show in Dortmund the day before on December 2nd, 1986. The first one is taken from a German site and the second one is a low resolution image from who knows where.

One from Irvine from August 3rd 1985 supporting Ratt.


One from the Worcester Centrum, December 27th 1986.


One from one of the three nights in Honolulu, HI, October 1987

Pretty sure they played the smaller part of the Eilenriedehalle in 1986 (section B I think). Just like they played a smaller arena inside the Westfalenhallen complex and not the bigger one like in 1988 and 1993.
There was a pretty big US military complex stationed in the city, so Jon took the US flag because of that. He did the same at the Monsters of Rock in Mannheim 1986.

Thanks for the info! I know they played Westfalenhalle 3 but didn't know about Eilenriedehalle section B.

Pretty sure this one is from the Raritan Manor 1988.
