Screaming Lord Sutch at the Top Rank Halloween 1971 but sneaked in through the fire exit and only saw the last few minutes.
First proper gig was Slade, Thin Lizzy and Suzi Quatro at the Top Rank 1972.

The Dead Kennedy's circa 81, in Glasgow. Had me hooked on live shows for years! First time I met Attilla (think he was promoter or some such) was a Kennedy's gig a couple of years later in Brixton - Peter & test tube babies supporting...

We got a place right by the lake, got stomped on by some Hell's Angels and watched a very pissed Keith Moon messing about in a rowing boat and eventually falling in.

Now i saw The Masked raiders [lead singer was Pete Byewaters] supporting The Macc Lads May 88 in Putney.
I saw The Macc Lads play a bar in a shopping centre in Ealing many moons ago. Utter shite.

1971 didn't really happen did it? That is one hell of a line up, nightmare-wise.
Keith Moon, though. I'd be happy to have a memory like that.

Hawkwind Spirit of the Age Tour at the Manchester Palace 16th September 1977 just before my 17th Birthday.
A dozen of us with the only driver we could summon piled into in a Ford Transit all the way from Northwich
When we got there we somehow got served a couple of bottles of Newcastle Brown in the Bar even though we were obviously spotty under age oiks with bum fluff while surrounded by the most horrendous looking local Hells Angels.
Performance was halted part way through due to a brawl between Security and the Angels.
Hawkwind were thunderous and Mad Bob Calvert didn't forget any lyrics for once.
A truly marvellous night.
