| I thought that 1964 concert in Bradford was the only one they didn't sell out? Typical Bradford apathy!

I don't remember that, is it really true or just one of those stories? Mind, the Gaumont, in its original condition before it was partitioned, held around 3k so it would take a big audience to totally fill it.

I'd put that down to good taste more than apathy.

One of the few bands I have seen at Bradford Uni. Must have been 17 years ago at least. I seem to remember a topless dancer.

It's one of my Dad's oft repeated tales. I'm not sure to whether to believe it or not. Like his stories about once being a lion tamer or being Steve McQueen's mate.

Granted the first few Beatles albums are a bit formulaic to modern ears but Rubber Soul and Revolver are superb albums.
Better than owt Mott the Hoople did anyway

Everything has its time. I have never got the Beatles adulation, not a patch on the stuff the Stones, Kinks or Pretty Things were doing. Discuss (FA - you are limited to one side of A4).

As someone said in Manchester, "if this was the seventies they'd have their norks out".
I saw Nirvana at Bradford Uni'. Spiritualized too. They came on to strobe lights and a five minute long wall of noise and it felt like half the crowd fell over from the sensory overload. Awesome times.
I don't remember the last time there was a gig here. Must be ten years ago at least, not counting InFest.

| I turned down the chance to see Nirvana at Bradford Uni in 1991
I went to the Mock Turtles there instead
The last band I saw there was The Fall in either 94 or 95.

Can't believe I missed the Fall. The only other band I recollect playing in my time was Bjorn Again. I didn't go, obviously, but the campus was filled with mock 70s Swedes for the day, which was nice.

| I saw Bjorn Again in Brighton in the early 90s with Odyssey (!) as the support act. Would kill to see Odyssey again, they were brilliant live. That said, it's a longer period of time between then and now than it was between then and when they were famous.

| Yep I saw Bjorn Again for some unknown reason at Brad Uni sometime in the early 90s.
I was one of those mock Swedes. Why I went I don't recall as I've never been into Abba.

Was it so you could blend in without the hassle of having to hire fancy dress?

I was at Bjorn Again too. I spent most of it on my friends shoulders. He was very drunk and the next day could not understand why his shoulders hurt so much.
Those where the days....

My now wife (then girlfriend) worked for the union in those days and turned down free tickets for Nirvana. She didn't know who they were. Even though I had played Nevermind non-stop for weeks everything she was round.
I've still not got over it.

| In fact thinking about it we traded festivals. I went to Donnington with her if she'd come to Reading with me. She saw Nirvana at the bottom of the bill at Reading and fell in love and I got hit in the face by a flying bottle of pi55 at Donnington and sat at the back in shock freezing my ass off, convinced I had a broken nose and waiting for AC/DC to finish so we could get on the bus and bugger off. Not an entirely fair exchange.
And then the world went Nirvana mental and I could pretend I was in on the ground floor.

| Does anyone know if season ticket holders get free entry into this round.
Seem to remember something like that over last couple of years but not sure if it still happens.

They stopped that scheme either last year or year before.

| Quote ="RhinoLaney"Puggy,
I was referring to Rochdale the Town.
As for Spotland, I’ve been there 7-8 times with my Football Club.
Just hope you don’t use the same Stewards as you do for the Football…not helpful in the slightest.
The PA system is very loud but as the PA man plays Stone Roses, Happy Mondays and general “Madchester” music I’ll let him off
Parking is awful and it’s miles away from anywhere.
The Pub at the end of the road at the back of the away end is pretty decent.
I would also recommend the Fish & Chip shop directly behind the away end (if it’s open)'"
OK no problem I hope your lot fill the stand as it will allow us to put some money aside for emergencies etc.
Even though we have no 'money men' on the board we have been doing very well and in the last two years we have broken even and even made a small profit last season!!!
It's hard graft but it's better than B & Q or Asda on a Sunday afternoon.
Looking forward to it.
Pugwash.

| There is a small amount of parking at the ground for £3.00,with limited street parking around the stadium but obey the no parking cones or you will get a ticket.As Pugwash says they normally allow parking for the larger matches at Oulder Hill School follow the signs for the Gracie Fields Theatre.

| On Bulls Twitter, Bulls Jnr Season Ticket Holders get in free. TOO LATE! Already bought grandsons ticket. Why the late notification?
While I am at it, my Bulls Lotto form returned by my Bank because Bulls printed their a/c details wrongly on the form.This has been a bit of a shambles with me waiting for renewal form as promised on phone, then printing off form from website because promised form did not come. Now have to go personally to my bank to set up Standing Order because of the error on the form. Bulls have lost about 8 wks lotto from me - and I suspect a few thousand others . #cash flow?
