Transcript: "UFO & RUSH - 'Heavy Metal Is Back'" - Corpus Christi Times, October 25, 1977

Here's something I recently stumbled upon online: "UFO & RUSH - 'Heavy Metal Is Back'" is a concert review that appeared in the Corpus Christi Times on October 25, 1977, the day after selling out the Corpus Christi Memorial Coliseum. Both bands are praised, and the review discusses "backstage craziness" between Rush and UFO: 'a running battle between Lee, UFO and crew members kept things constantly appearing onstage, culminating in UFO's irrepressible bassist Pete Way's candy-striped pants being strung up on Lee's amps. As Rush prepared to return for its well-deserved encore, Lee and Way quickly exchanged clothes and Way led Rush back out on stage. Running and jumping around and generally being crazy, Way clowned through most of Rush's three-song encore, which began with "Working Man" and concluded with Lee laughing uncontrollably in Way's arms off the side of the stage following "Cinderella Man."'
