Hi,

I was browsing the net to get the date I saw Bob at the bowl and I found this, cant really say much except there was a legalize pot campaign going on and you could buy cannabis as easy as ice cream from the stalls “probably why there’s not much people can recall”.

The weather was great, I do recall Joe jackson saying something quite racial that the crowd didn’t like and he was booed. Myself and my friend walked around the back of the stage and got to see Bob behind a big fence with some friends smoking and chatting before he went on stage.

All the best Joe
