In the 2nd picture, Trooper poses backstage at Vancouver's Coliseum on the night of Oct. 25, 1980, with the Universal gang that included MCA National Promo exec Lesley Soldat, label VP & GM George Burns, and on the far right is the band's manager Sam Feldman. It was an auspicious night as it was the first of many SRO concerts in Trooper's hometown.
