Original Toronto Star caption: Perched atop a souvenir booth outside the Canadian National Exhibition stadium; this group of rocks fans got a free look at the weekend Festival Express 70 concert - and avoided clashing with police who had problems with gate-crashers objecting to the $16 admission fee. About 2;000 persons tried to storm the gates Saturday protesting the high prices; but police held them back. A free concert was set up at nearby Coronation Park for benefit of non-paying fans.
