On January 11, 1985, I went alone to the Rock in Rio. I was 14 years old. I arrived early. The Whitesnake show begin there at 21: 00h at 12: 00h I was already in front of the stage. As I was very low, I had to pack up two empty beer cans (at that time the cans were not aluminum, not kneaded so easily) so I can see the stage. When the Whitesnake show finally started, the crowd exploded. A sea of people excited about the first chords. Many people were pushed and, as a tsunami of people, pushing thousands of side to side. At 15:00 minutes of video you can clearly see the crowd. At this point, I could not see anything. I realized over time that many people could not stand the pressure and were charged faded up the stage. I did not think twice. I, a kid of 14 years old, surely would do the same to me if I simulated a faint. Thats exactly what happened. I threw myself on the ground, the crowd lifted me and the guards led me up the stage. Suddenly, I was there, backstage, less than 2 meters away from the Cozy Powell. I stood still. Sprawled. For about five minutes, I could not take my eyes of the force that was emanating from the top of that stage. Suddenly, a security guard came up to me and asked: So? You have improved? And I, in my naivete, said: Of course! Im fine now! Then the security replied: Now get out for the stage! You can check appears a drive for the Crying in the Rain just to 25:07 of the video, the guards pulling me up the stage. the link is already at the exact moment https://youtube/watch?v=rTOmG07TDqE#t=1507
