THE TOUR
Ten Years After was a British blues rock band that gained popularity in the late 1960s and early 1970s. In 1971, they were still riding the success of their iconic performance at the Woodstock Festival in 1969. They were known for their high-energy live performances and hits like "I'm Going Home."

Alvin Lee was the lead guitarist and the primary vocalist of Ten Years After. He was known for his fast and virtuosic guitar playing and was a central figure in the band's sound. Lee's performance at the Woodstock Festival in 1969, particularly during the song "I'm Going Home," is one of his most famous moments.

Leo Lyons was the bassist of the band and played a crucial role in anchoring the rhythm section. He co-founded Ten Years After along with Alvin Lee and remained a core member throughout the band's career.

Chick Churchill played the keyboards, primarily the organ and piano, in the band and Ric Lee was the drummer.

Ten Years After's classic lineup remained fairly stable throughout their most successful years, with some occasional changes in the 1970s. While Alvin Lee and Leo Lyons were the founding members and key figures in the band's history, it was Alvin Lee's distinctive guitar playing and charismatic stage presence that often defined the group's sound and live performances.
