01/11/87 - QUEENS HALL, LEEDS

Summary by Bryan King:
This is the second of two nights in Leeds, England during the Europe leg of the Into the Fire fall '87 tour. The venue is what Bryan refers to as a "Parking lot".

BA tells the crowd that the UK portion of the Into the Fire tour was supposed to be London, Leeds and Birmingham only. However, due to huge ticket sales, they continued to add dates in new cities and multiple nights in cities such as London (4 nights at Wembley Arena) and Leeds. BA tells the audience that he and the band are "extremely overwhelmed" and appreciative of the reception they received in the UK.

When BA played Leeds' 'Millenium Square' in 2002, he said he remembered playing Leeds in '87 because the venue was so hot... you couldn't see across the theatre for the mist! He came off-stage soaked. At the time along with Sheffield City Hall - this was one of Yorkshire's biggest venues... until BA rocked the 'new' Sheffield Arena in '91.
