I have one from Slane 95 that is pretty cool. Won't be able to get a pic of it up though.

In some bizarre moment of madness when cleaning a room I think I threw all mine out. I had loads from the SFX circa around 93 - 95, few from The Point around the time aswell... terrible move.

you need to save them to a host like photobucket or flickr. it gives you an option to copy. select what you want and post the url on here.

Aye, thought so , cheers.

Mickolution · 20-10-2010 2:07pm

Wow, I'm fairly jealous reading this thread. I'd sell both legs to have seen The Clash or The Smiths.

scudzilla · 20-10-2010 2:09pm

Some awesome ticket stubs here, well done to all.

This thread is making me sad though, i went to hundreds of gigs in the 80's and 90's and didn't bother keeping the stubs, i have for the past few years though, but i'd have loved to have had the cop on to keep my old ones

ned rierson · 20-10-2010 2:50pm

jesus, i spent a lot of my youth in the SFX.

bullpost · 20-10-2010 3:55pm

I'm old enough to have been at both - took an SLR to phibsboro and have some photos buried in the house somewhere - will dig em out and scan them.

honru · 20-10-2010 4:23pm

I like the way the bands' names on the older tickets are all in differing (and much clearer) fonts from one another, and some even with the font that the band uses on album covers, etc.. The only ticket I have like that is Pixies in Alexandra Palace London, 2005.

scudzilla · 20-10-2010 5:52pm

This is the only ticket stub i kept from the 80's & 90's

:(

Awesome show though

Excellent Stuff, What's the year on the Bryan ferry one?? Also if i remember correctly Big Country Supported Page & Plant too???

honru · 21-10-2010 12:37am

Chili Peppers, Moby and The Flaming Lips... that's a pretty random billing. Not bad for a Point gig.

Where was the SFX Theatre? The last gig I remember being there was Tool way back on their Lateralus Tour in 2001 or something. Put it in to Google Street View and didn't find any building that resembled a theatre.

I'd love to see any pictures of what the Top Hot in Dun Laoghaire looked like on the outside. Used to go to the Fun Factory as a kid... good sweaty times.

SFX Was just off the five lamps, as far as i know 2001 was the last year for gigs there,the last year i was at one anyway, It has Been Demolished now about 5 years or so, SFX apartments(i think they're called) are there now, , Attached is a pic of the Top Hat at the Slayer/Nuclear Assault gig in 1988

Despite her name being on the ticket, Sheryl Crow didn't play that Point show, but I don't remember why. She was replaced by Big Country, whose drummer then got sick, so they played the set without him.

Seen em live a few times, They're probably the best live band i have ever seen, Stuart's Guitar playing was always second to none, Ya always got your moneys worth with BC, then some more....

As far as my memory goes Ferry played in 94. Sheryl Crow cancelled due to illness.

Off-topic: I remember stumbling upon a discussion (possibly on "80s bands") on Dave Fanning's radio show only a few years ago, and Big Country were mentioned in a context which suggested that nobody on the panel seemed to know that Stuart was dead. :eek:

rednik · 21-10-2010 10:28am

Talking of Bryan Ferry, his new album is out this w/end and Brian Eno did some work on it so it should be interesting. A host of others involved including David Gilmour, the album is called Olympia.
