Don't know why Brian are that interested in the exact date. But I have 
another question concerning the show you went to. I got the NJ-shows from 
Howard the other day and I suspect the dates on these shows are wrong, so I 
just want to ask you if you remember the musicians at the Ritz show???

Don't really want to speculate on this, but when Richard came to Sweden 
(early 1985) he had been dry and clean for about seven months. Though, I saw 
him "on the town" a few times later that spring and, I don't know anything 
about his health then, but to me he didn't seem to be quite alright. But 
when he returned to Sweden in october on his brilliant Field Of Fire tour, 
I'm sure he must have been in very good shape, but it's true he looked a 
little "spooky", long blackdyed hair made him look more pale. On a show on 
Swedish TV he had even put on black make up on his eyes. (Is it called 
"cajal" in english too?)
