If Carter USM are the pinnacle of what you are striving for it's time to give up. so about 92 i'd say
Good call on 92. I was working at Reading in 91 and it was desperate stuff. Carter and James being notably awful. There was a band down bill on the first day that we thought were quite good. American power trio with a brilliant front man. No idea what happened to them. That day was also notable for the worst Iggy set I ever saw and I have experienced some awful ones. One of those weekends when the prospect of going back to work on the Tuesday seemed positively idyllic.
