But the train service we wanted wasn't running, so we had to take a five stop coach journey which turned the 1h trip into 6hs....

After missing the show, but getting to the stage door just intime to see the bands leave we told David Coverdale our story. He quickly arranged a "better train services" fund-raising festival in Russia with Scorpions, Maiden and BOn Jovi also on the bill..... Because we missed the show, he reserved us seats on his plain to go down and see the whole thing with backstage passes
