Was at all of them too
Fleetwood Mac at Bingley Hall in June 1980. Right in the middle of my O levels. Had Biology exam the next morning and only ended up with a B grade, but it was worth it to see Stevie Nicks in her prime
Springsteen sheffield 88
I saw Floyd, stones and Oasis there, all great gigs
Saw that tour at the Brixton Academy....gteat showU2 1987 on the joshua tree tour at muryfield
First concert I remember was my Mam dragging us to watch Showaddywaddy at the Queen Elizabeth Hall in Oldham, bobbins.
It was a duel club with Tiffany's and The Lacarno. I think the specials live single too much too young was recorded there.Bloody hell,you know somert,I thought that place was just a made up name,as sung by The Specials in Friday night/Saturday morning song,but it makes sense now,with them being from there,fuck me it's a small and weird world we live in,I have lived a sheltered life at times though I think to myself,I've just googled Locarno Coventry and there it is/was,looks like it has gone these days
Edit- Just looked into it further,and it is now Coventry Central Library I think !!! You might know different ?
...but...I defy anybody trollin' down the motorway tryin' to get home in time for Xmas to their Mrs/Fella/Partner/Mistress/Dog/Goldfish/etc. at Xmas not to be uplifted by 'Drivin' home for Christmas? But yeh...there was also a lot of shite in the boot of Mr Rea's car. :-)Prince. Maine Rd 1990.
Shit, just remembered, Chris Rea, somewhere in Sheffield maybe a year earlier
*shame face but the tickets were a gift.
Yeah but but their necks smell of pussy Stony.
Eau de twatette.
