Good to see that so many people enjoyed Gaslight Anthem. I saw first saw them supporting Springsteen at Hard Rock Calling in 2009. Totaly awesome gig, with Brian from Gaslight Anthem coming onto sing "No Surrender" with The Boss.

Wouldn't that have been a bit weird, having a Springsteen tribute act actually supporting the Boss himself?? |

Brian Fallon did that with his support act at the Apollo, called Chuck Ragan on to sing '59 Sound. |

Mmmmm......bit harsh, they are far more than a "Springsteen tribute act". |

V Good indeed. I went to see them when they headlined at Maine Rd in '91 (I went to see the Stranglers, who were disappointing) and I was very impressed. Good voice, good musicianship, good live act.
quote
[uIf memory serves me correctly did OMD and Voice of the Beehive appear as well on that bill? I was disappointed with the Stranglers as well but strangely thought OMD were really entertaining, especially Andy McClusky's dancing............[/u
Gig of 2010 for me - Mumford & Sons in March in Manchester.'"
You are correct, LG. Those 2 acts did complete the line up.
Voice of the Beehive lead singer (in American accent, after 3 songs, to a bunch of "well oiled" young men) "what are you guys singing...get yer t1t5 out for the lads"
OMD, came on stage, and within the first 10 seconds, one of their keyboard players had played 3 bum notes...not good. Felt sorry for McClusky (OMD not my cup of tea at all), backed up by crap, but still busted a gut.
The Stranglers really hacked me off . Hugh Cornwell had just left and they showcased virtually a whole new album, to a crowd of 30,000+, with only playing a handfull of their classics. Strange decision. |

For those liking something different, check out cosmic disco website. If you went to Legends you will find some very good Mike Woods mixes.

No, Radiohead played 2 nights at Victoria Park in October 2000 to promote the release of 'Kid A'.....They used the largest tent in Europe and that was quite lucky as I remember it being quite soggy. |

| Here's a list of a few old gigs I went to that I posted as part of a discussion about Simon Moran (SJM Music) promoted gigs:
Quote ="Brixton Wire"was just looking back through my old gig tickets to see which SJM ones I'd been to. turns out there are quite a few...
Radiohead £5.50 Man Uni May 1993 (before Creep was released - back in the day)
Buzzcocks £7.50 Parr Hall June 1993
Smashing Pumpkins + Verve Sep 1993 Liverpool Royal Court £7.50
Oasis Stoke Trentham Gardens Sep 95 £10 ( a tenner to see Oasis ! )
Black Grape newcastle Uni Oct 95 £8.50
Stone Roses mANC Appollo dec 95 £12.50
Sultans of Ping FC Manc Uni Feb 94
Charlatans newcastle Uni 1996
Primal Scream Sheffield Octagon Feb 1998
you have to admit, Sultans of Ping aside, I've got cracking taste in music...
any other cool kids at any of these gigs ?
or for that matter at any indie night at Legends, The Old Lion, or The World 1993 - c1998.... ?'"
Recently London gigs have included The Wedding Present playing 1989 classic album Brassneck, The National, Cast - 15 years of All Change, Interpol, The Divine Comedy, Pavement, and Mudhoney |

nice one Dita, small world ! can you remember the name of the support band though....?
I saw the Sultans more recently, c 2005, still just the same, only slightly older!
did you go to any other Manc or Liverpool gigs around that time ? another one was Carter USM (Post Historic Monsters tour) with Sultans and Blink (not 182!) supporting, at the Manc Academy in Nov 1993.
