I saw them at The Buccaneer in August 77 - there were 15 people in the audience (I could actually count them). A few weeks later, 2-4-6-8 came out, the next time I saw them (at uni), the place was packed.

I went 76,77,78, so the memory gets a bit befuddled about who I saw and when.
Was that the year The Jam headlined Friday night?

We should sing "Motorway" for Pritchard when we play Narrrich.
