One of the gigs was cancelled and rearranged as Lynott had larynghitus.

it will be the last two that I saw then, I believe Phil Lynott had his OD about six months after I saw them for the last time.....tragedy, especially as he told me and ooo's of the people at the gig, that he was " Going to Give it Up ".....

Could not agree more the sound was f***ed due to the wind cutting across the venue. Great day though.

Seems to me the Essential Festival in Brighton never gets its proper due acclaim. Recall seeing MONSTER sets from Underworld, Chemical Brothers, Fluke etc. on Dance Day over the few years it was going for. Total respect to the organisers.

Have to agree with Queen at the centre in 1979. Got in early and was standing right at the front.

The 'Ruts' at the Marquee around the time 'Human Punk' was recorded for their first album. One of the most underrated live bands of all time!

The Ahmet Ertegan tribute concert, December 2007, without reservation, fear of contradiction, and utterly 100% totally unreservedly enthusiasm, that was the finest live show I have ever seen, guaranteed, and I don't expect to ever see a better one. Oh, and REMF got a clear £400 or so out of it.

Ah, if only that was still going. I remember seeing Public Enemy followed by James Brown and then Jamelia and then DJ Krush on hip-hop day.

Bob Marley - Both nights 1980
2nd night memorable for two reasons. First when he danced onto the stage, he tripped and fell into drum set, and secondly meeting him on the coach at the back of the center. Ill never forget it.
Last show in Europe. His last performance was in Pittsburgh in Sept 80

Tiesto did a suprise set at a beach party I went to in Ibiza in 2005, that was pretty cool to watch him doing his thing while flame throwers, fireworks etc were happening at the same time.
