Post 1982, when gig going became a lot more routine, it is all a bit of a blur. The ones that burn brightest in the memory are from way way back. I can recall a lot of detail about these shows (between 75 and 82) but being a jaded old fuck I might struggle to describe what I saw just last month.

Yes - QPR
The Who - Hammersmith (Who By Numbers Xmas gigs)
Status Quo - Hammersmith (Blue For You tour)
Rainbow - Hammersmith (Rainbow Rising tour)
Chapman Whitney Streetwalkers - New Victoria Theatre
Man / Hinkley's Heroes - Roundhouse (farewell shows)
John Martyn - Collegiate Theatre
The Tubes / Wire - Hammersmith
TRB - Marquee
Spirit - Rainbow
Zappa - Hammersmith (Sunday matinee early '78)
David Johansen - Lyceum
The Only Ones - Dingwalls
Misty - PNL
Art Ensemble of Chicago - Roundhouse (two shows)
James Brown - Rainbow
Joelle Leandre / Derek Bailey - Collegiate Theatre
Sun Ra - The Venue
