Max were 2nd on a 4 band bill — local band Harlequin, then Max, Eddie Money and headlining was Burton Cummings. I was 13 and it was my 4th big show. Max only had about 75mins so it was basically the Live Magnetic Air show with a few extras. They did do Let Go The Line and I remember the ‘Max Webster dancing' bit at the end of the show which freaked me out in a good way. I ALWAYS preferred Max with Terry cause he added such a strange, mysterious almost vibe to the band, because of just the way he was — with the makeup, clothes and odd keyboard sounds, etc.
