Best or possibly worst venue was Adam and Eves in Leeds - saw King Kurt there a few times and always came out covered in flour and gunge , bit tipsy and DEAF ! (not the biggest of venues )

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".

The Clash/Theatre of hate gig wasn't Manchester Apollo by any chance,saw them both there one monday night.

First gig. Mott the Hoople at Leeds Town Hall in 1973. Support group was Queen.

Saw Rory Gallagher at Leeds Town Hall not long after tickets were 50p.

My brother was at that Mott The Hoople gig - he bought the first Queen album after that gig and his 9 year old little brother (me) started to listen to what would become his favourite group.

Last month I went to see the reformed Mott The Hoople play 7 excellent gigs (2 warm ups in Monmouth, 5 proper gigs in Hammersmith), their first for over 35 years - last week I met Brian May of Queen in Bradford.

On TV on Friday night (BBC2 11.35pm) is Queen's 1975 Christmas Eve concert from Hammersmith - recommended viewing
