Hi
I'm interested in tracking down any info on three gigs Blue Oyster Cult played with Trapeze in May 75 - I found a post relating to one of these shows elsewhere on this board which hinted at bad blood between BOC and Trapeze, and I was wondering if any board members had any background info on this?
Also - I understand there's a Glenn Hughes autobiography out and I was wondering if maybe there might be any mention in that about it?
Here's what info I know about the gigs so far:

Any info would be gratefully received.

Welcome aboard kirthgersen ~ but that gig was post-GH, as he had left for Deep Purple by '75... so... no mention of that in his Autobiography...

Thanks for that - got my dates confused - I'd thought he joined DP in 75 - and that also explains why I couldn't find the gigs listed on the Tourography page... I think Homer had it exactly right when he so succinctly opined:
"DOH!!"
Still, if anyone happens to know the source of the animosity, which seems to have stemmed from an incident when Glenn WAS with the band - so hopefully, it's not TOO off-topic - I'd appreciate hearing about it...
(It could possibly have been from a Memphis gig in 72/73 with Hydra/BOC and Trapeze, when creditors tried to seize Trapeze's gear and Hydra hid it for them...)
