First gig. I'm in there somewhere. Near the stacks in front of Paul Simonon.
@squirtyflower. Is this the one you were at mate? Siouxsie was there but I don't think Magazine played. Maybe Penetration?
I feel slightly jealous I wasn't there Bacon. I was only 13 and didn't get into punk till 78.

Saw them several times when Hugh Cornwell was lead singer. When he left I didn't want to see them again. You can replace a lead, base guitarist and drummer but not a lead singer IMO.Always wanted to get to one, great band

I live in hope that Hugh and JJ will resolve their issues.

I’m almost certain it was the first outing of Magazine, but you know what memory’s are like. May be i saw their first gig elsewhere
There was also a decent group in the neighbouring bar, Warsaw.

They used to rent a little cottage in Lyvden woods in Northants, me and some mates would bike out there and they were cool enough to talk with us. Must have been 78 or 79, can’t remember what album they were putting togetherSaw them several times when Hugh Cornwell was lead singer. When he left I didn't want to see them again.
