I'm a happy depressive - the glass is half empty but the bar is open.: |

Yes - except that Buffin only played one of the encores each night due to illness - Martin Chambers (The Pretenders) stood in for the rest.

| Quote: Slugger McBatt "Will have been much before then. They did their farewell tour in December 1982, with their last ever gig early in 1983, and The Style Council were onto their third single by August 83 (puts anorak on and finds it fits lovely).'"
Yes you are right it was actually September 1982, had to check it up out of curiosity, and the s****y tram depot was mascarading under pompous title of The Queens Exhibition Hall

| Anyone remember the Elvis Costello gig at Tiffany's in 1980...
would have been my first ...
with the small (and embarassing) exception of Freddy and the Dreamers at Skegness in 1974... (with my mum and dad!!!)
also did the Police, U2, Elton John (in Hong Kong)... then the memory fogs....

I love all types of music just not a concert type of lad, although was gutted I missed out on ACDC tickets earlier in the year.

3076_1671446335.jpg SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

| The Eagles at the M.E.N. arena. Unreal.
They started off with the stage blacked out, one chord and went into the song Seven Bridges Road (a cappella) as the lights gradually came on.
They were swapping instruments throughout the concert, and as Glenn Frey stated "We can all sing, and we can all play"
How many bands can say that?
If you ever get a chance go and watch them, it's not a show it's an experience.

Billy Joel played the whole lot too, although not at the same time....he was good, but not that good.

| Saw Slade at the Unity Hall sometime in the early 80's, Vardis and Roadster in support. Not the greatest gig ever but some of my mates played in the support bands so that made it very special.
Pink Floyd at Knebworth was easily the most ewesome experience. Status Quo at Donington in 1982 was good, supported by the 100,000 strong Quo Army.

| Queens Hall - what a dump!
But.... saw AC/DC, Thin Lizzy and Whitesnake there. Whitesnake had Cozy Powell on drums and his solo was breathtaking!
