Alex Drum Solos '79-'84
Did anyone else think it was strange that the drum solo was that early in the set in the early days? Two songs-in. They did it like that from the VHII tour until the 1984 tour. Just seemed way too early and always thought that was weird.
I think it was better placed during the Sammy era when it was closer to the middle of the set AFTER the bass solo which was still at least a handful of songs-in.Dave
