Comment
This might be the first ever annihilator show or just the first recording surfaced so far. This is a great show with John Bates on vocals. You can here the roughness of guitar sound. Here's what Jeff Waters said about
the gig: 'i "think" the first ever show was in a Quebec city town called "Val D'or". we played there for a week. was funny; i had really funny hair (yes, funnier than anything you have seen from me before!) and John Bates
(original singer/lyricist too) made some really silly boots for me! it was like a really bad looking nikki sixx wanna-be! hehehe! And imagine playing buzzsaw blade looking like a fruity glam metal wannabe?! hehe! anybody ever see pantera (power metal!) or slayer in their earliy days?! hehe! couldn't live up to their early images though! hahaha! just trying to remember if i ever wore
spandex pants!' :)
