I came across these today and thought I'd share them. Not the greatest photos, but...

Los Angeles - 1986

Playing the kettle drums on Change.

Awesome photos guys! I'm especially loving the one's with Russ in jeans, nice,

That one of them outside the tattoo parlour is cool as well (wonder if they got one, lol).

In the top photos it looks like the Woman who claimed very special relations with an alien.Can just see Ron with a full back tattoo of Bruce Lee.

those pictures are really, seriously great. Now I wish I had seen the '86 tour.

Fantastic pictures!

Just wondering, were Gleaming Spires still touring with Sparks in 1986?

Only the drummer David Kendrick remained from the Gleaming Spires in 1986.

Seems funny to see Ron in a full suit while Russ is sporting the more casual attire! Can't imagine them actually playing at Magic Mountain, but there were supposedly MANY gigs there aside from the ROLLERCOASTER movie. YGM, did you go to any of those?

I went to most (if not all) the gigs at Magic Mountain. One day I have to dig out the rest of my photos!

Me too! I remember being in line right next to Miss Fierce. I still have my turquoise muscle t-shirt from the "Cool Place" tour. The "muscle t" was not a good look for me (or anyone, really) , but it didn't stop me from wearing it.

Last night's show was AMAZING!
