Its a fact. I used to go to the ABC Minors on a Saturday morning (oldies may remember 6d and 9d to get in). The Beatles played and a neighbour of mine's mother who worked there got John Lennon's autograph. He had it valued and authonticated by Sotherby's in London who confirmed it to be genuine (he knew it was genuine). It would have been worth a few hundred pounds if it was on a page of its own but on the reverse of the page was the autographs of the Wakefield Trinity team of the day.

One of the best bands ever - saw them many times in the late 80's (Reading Festival 1987 one of the best gigs ever) and the guys in the band are still performing and as good - Dan Baird & Homemade Sin (Dan & Mauro from the Satellites, Keith original bass player before 'their hit' and Warner Hodges from Jason & The Scorchers on guitar) at the Borderline in London this year was brilliant - 2 hours 40 mins of great rock music. |

Saw them at MEN Arena not bad but 95% of people were only there for the 3 G N R tracks they played. |

Alex Harvey - several times
Be Bop Deluxe - several times, including (I think) at the Unity Hall
Alex Harvey was my first ever gig,think it was 1974ish,they were promoting Boston tea party.
Be Bop Deluxe,a wonderful band,saw them at Dolly Grays,one of my favourite bands of all time,Bill Nelson,a Wakey legend,after the Cribs,Trinity and Strangeways!  This thread really should have a life of it's own.

Currently under discussion - bear with us.
Dolly Grays - now there's a name I haven't heard in years.
Bill Nelson seemed to be anywhere and everywhere at that time. His musical style certainly adapted to the times. Never saw Bill Nelson's Red Noise live, but he himself was at just about every gig I ever attended.

Worst gig I ever went to was Altered Images in their heyday, with Claire Grogan prancing about with her cardigan hanging off her shoulder.
Most surprising gig I ever went to was The Clash in 1981 or 1982, as they were supported by a band I'd never heard of called Theatre of Hate, and they were loads better than The Clash.
First gig I ever went to was Madness in 1980, which was not only good for the main band, but the support band was an unknown (over here) American band called The Go-Gos, who I'm sure you know were fronted by Belinda Carlisle. I remember that she looked "chunky".
