Claudio Trotta (promoter, Barley Arts) : I first met Jake Berry when he was production manager for AC/DC back in the days when we were doing Monsters Of Rock. He wanted to come over in April to see the venue, so I told him that all he would see in April was a field of potatoes. But he insisted on coming and then, when he arrived, he said, "Claudio, this is just a field of potatoes". I said, "That’s what I fuckin’ told you."
