You know,I wanted to say that but didn't think it would be appropriate. I first saw him at the Top Rank with a load of hardcore punk rock bands, and then many times for his Christmas shows at the Centre, he was a lot of fun, a great performer, and those 2 drummers sounded fantastic. Shame, he...
Ha, and I was one of the 500,000 at the last ever Jam gig, it was a great and memorable event. But I never thought the Jam were a particularly good live band, energetic, yes, enthusiastic, yes, crowd pleasers, mmm, to a degree, but never brilliantly executed performances IMO. I only saw them...
Isn't it odd, I liked their records, but saw them on their first ever tour, supporting Alice Cooper (I think) as the Stuart Adamson Band, they were really bad, then saw them some years later as Big Country, supporting Bowie, and again they were poor.
In no particular order.
