tired
sbisson - - First gig: The Global Village Trucking Company, Gong, a Punch & Judy Show (and I mean a show) and two other bands at the Liverpool Stadium, circa 1974/1975.
[Later] Actually, now I've slept on it, I think my first gig was Emerson, Lake & Palmer at the Liverpool Empire, probably in 1974. - Last: Judie Tzuke at the Arts Centre in Southport, last year (November, I think).
- Next: Eddi Reader at the Liverpool Philharmonic Hall, in May.
- Best: The first Split Enz gig I saw at Eric's, in Liverpool, 1977.
- Worst: Probably Supertramp at the Liverpool Stadium, just before Crime of the Century came out. I fell asleep.
- Memorable: The first Hootie and The Blowfish gig I saw at Wolverhampton Civic Hall. The second time was damned good too.
- Sadly missed: Talking Heads - on a free to members night at Eric's in Liverpool (1977ish). I never saw them live but managed to accidently heckle David Burn when he did a show in Wolverhampton.
- Always a pleasure: Judie Tzuke - far better live than in the studio (sorry Jude!).
- Best venue: For shear breadth of choice and access, The Civic Hall in Wolverhampton. For memories, Eric's in Liverpool.
- Worst venue: A club in New Brighton where I roadied for a couple of local bands - I got electricuted once!
- Like to see: Colin Vearnecombe.
