So…. not only has my teenage obsession with chiseled cheeked red heads with electric blue eyes left me with a deeply embarrassing dent in the credibility of my musical taste, it's also managed to leave me feeling really.. really old..

I was up on the front line standing right in front of Peter. Awesome!

Can't remember my first gig, so long ago back in the early 90's and all a blur now, among the first though were:

Type O Neg.
Sepultura/Paradise Lost.
Nirvana.
Pearl Jam.
Metallica.
Stone Temple Pilots.

Ah jaysus that takes me back. I use to hate the fookin Revs. Absolute sh1tebags. Use to prefer the metal blasts not the pop punk ones but saw an amazing band there calle Label who I then saw at Witnness and got thrown a single that I still have on my iPod. They broke up soon after.
Saw the singer a few years ago in Vaughns and he said he's send me on more of their stuff and he never did :mad:.

Don't be embarrassed, that was a class gig.

Was it the one at The Point?

Thought that was '90 or '91.

We blagged some tickets to it from MCD at the time by saying that our tickets were now on a plane to New York in a family members jacket, they stuck us on the guestlist.

There were four of us, right up front.

She was barefoot throughout and stood on rug.

Between songs we kept shouting 'show us your tits' and she was laughing

She said something to us into the mic, but we were so drunk, none of us remembers what though.

GavRedKing · 15-10-2010 02:29PM

Birneybau · 15-10-2010 02:34PM
