With out a doubt, BeBop Deluxe has been & will be my all time favorite group. I used to play their LPs non stop back in the 70's. I finally got to see them in October of 1976 in my hometown of Madison, Wisconsin USA. I had graduated high school that spring. Back then there was festival seating(standing)only. My buddies and I were at the main door and ran down to get to the stage as the doors opened. We ended up in the 2nd row center. They only played for around 20+ minutes, but they were awesome. They played with Blue Oyster Cult. We all came to see Bill Nelson and BeBop Deluxe. I'd love to see Bill Nelson & the surviving members get together to play in Madison again someday.

Nice thought but that's never gonna happen. Fortunately all of the best BBD bootlegs have been released as bonuses on the boxsets. As close as we are going to get.
Personally, I would settle for another Nelsonica or release party.
What a great musical memory to have. Thanks for sharing that story.😎
