I saw The Boomtown Rats headline at The Apollo in 1978.

Saw Adam headline The Apollo too at his peak.

I do know that.

I am going to see Waters in July in Brum.

Nice one. He can't have too many tours left though. Have you got his solo album 'Is This The Life We Really Want'?

Does Gary Numan count at New Wave? Saw him at the Apollo too. Actually went to see him again last year in Oxford - was pretty good.

Also saw Eddie & The Hot Rods at the Free Trade Hall.

Not got it yet.

No he can't have many tours in him but I keep saying that about people. Next month will be the second or third time I'll be going to see The Rolling Stones thinking this will be the last time.

P.S. Goodnight

Saw them at Maine road in 90, they looked ancient then! Jagger performing sympathy for the devil high above the platt lane was impressive though.

I saw the Stones in Detroit 1981 with Santana and Iggy Pop.
The next day the Clash was added to the bill. : (

Before I moved ro the US, I always thought that punk was a british thing, definately not the case.

Young Marble Giants’ Colossal Youth album was big for me. I still pull that album out. Stranglers and Cramps were on heavy rotation.

you sir have impeccable taste
