...the concert I would have liked to see was "Heavy Metal Day" of the US Festival. The date was Sunday, May 29 1983, the temperature was 110-degrees, there was an estimated 375,000 people attending and it was "The day new wave died and rock and roll took over" as Motley Crue frontman Vince Neil said[1]. The lineup for this day of the festival was incredible for the time. The bands are listed below and individual posts with festival concert footage from each one will come in the near future.
