Did you go to rock festivals and major london prog gigs in the period 1974 to 1978? If you did, do you remember a skinny guy in a long white robe and pale long hair who was often seen dancing along in a trippy fashion near the front who everyone called 'Jesus'?
If the answer is yes. Does anyone know who he was and what became of him? ------------- Prog Rock fan and Amateur Astronomer |

Saw a lot of bands in the 70's but very few 'Prog' ones e.g. Peter Gabriel on his 1st solo tour (good), Tangerine Dream (wretched) and Journey (grevious) but all at the Glasgow Apollo. As for mystery man in the photo, Jesus may have been a reaction, not a greeting.

I regret that I'm *1989, so these things simply could not happened. But you know, these things you can affect.

All I know of the man is I saw him at Crystal Palace Bowl in about 1982 (I do have a photo of him somewhere...  ) - the gig? Well, not exactly prog....
....OK, it was Chris De Burgh
