First Gig...?

[Silver-Fox]

My mum took me with her to see the Beatles when they played at the Odeon cinema Luton in 1963.

Blimey, when you were 23

Didn’t she trust you out on your own

The Kinks I think, at the (swinging) Adelphi Ballroom West Bromwich, ?1964.

 

[Two on Tour]

I was 7 at the time and my mum was 25.
Where doe's your " when you were 23" come into it?

She took along when she went to see Freddie & The Dreamers in October 63. I remember it being bloody cold queuing to get in, and hiding under my mum's coat to try and keep warm.

It was just mentioned on the TV what was your first gig, me and Chris got to talking...

Mine was Ultravox 1980 at the Liverpool Empire, 14 years old (on my todd), dropped off and picked up by the "Old Man".

Chris' was Showaddywaddy around 1976 at the ABC Cinema in Chester, 13 years old (with best mate Sue, still in touch), dropped off and picked up by the "Old Man".

What was your first gig..?

Cheers

I was at that Ultravox gig, bought the t-shirt with "haunting notes, pizzicato strings" on the back. Saw them a month or two earlier at Rotters. First gig, I think, was Bowie at the NEC earlier the same year.
