Not much booked so far. Angelic upstarts in April, Long division (got ticket but can't go) Uk Subs in October and Butlins alternative festival also in October.

I saw Philip Lynott's Grand Slam at Nostell, of all places and saw the late great Gary Moore quite a few times

I was hardcore in those days. Thanks for separating this topic from the original poptart.
No problem. The Hull board used to have topics like this in the mid season break. You'd find some kindred spirits on there.

If you could travel back in time to see a band or solo for that matter who isn't around any more who would you pick?
I think I'd certainly want to see Elvis 68 comeback concert but band wise I think I'd like to go back to see the Who in their prime. Obviously the Beatles are big but not with all the screaming girls. I reckon the Eagles were pretty special in the 70s. More modern times I'd have liked to have seen the Jam live and I nearly went to see Queen in the 80s but my friends all fell out with each other so we called it off. Big mistake.

Queen for me also, but I saw Quo live for the first time in 76, brilliant, would love to go back to that gig.

T Rex, love em, I never liked or appreciated them as a kid, it's not till I've got older that I appreciate how good and how advanced they were, they wouldn't be out of place today playing live. Never saw the Who in their prime as in the early 70's but saw the in 78 at Stafford Bingley hall and Wembley in 79 (I think) supported by the Stranglers, Nils Lofgren and a little known band ACDC. The Jam I was lucky enough to see a fair few times, my best memory Jam wise was May 79, Friday evening Sheffield uni, great gig, met Weller after and got his autograph, midnight train to London, challenge cup final, Trinity V Widnes. I could waffle on all day music wise.
