KILLER WATT (IRL) " HORANS, TRALEE, CO. KERRY, IRELAND" (OCTOBER 28, 1987)

I was recently sent these pics of us (Killer Watt) supporting Mama’s Boys in Horans, Tralee, Co. Kerry. I honestly don’t remember this gig! It was a mismatched tour, band style wise, with us a speed/thrash band, & Mama’s Boys a straightforward rock band, a damn good one! We were due to play the now long gone (in)famous SFX here in Dublin on that tour, but unfortunately something happened that meant we were not allowed play. We were obviously upset, we could’ve set foot & played on the same stage as some of the greatest names in rock/metal, Whitesnake, Ozzy, Dio, Metallica, Anthrax, to name a few! I was also sent a pic of the poster for that gig.
What could’ve been!
