Joe Strummer (The Clash)
Ian Curtis (Joy Division)

Loads of others who meant less to me personally, including Freddie Mercury (Queen) and Karen Carpenter (The Carpenters) both of whom I saw at Hammersmith Odeon. On different nights. Obviously.
 


Phil Lynott with Thin Lizzy, B.B. King, Danny Federici and the "Big Man" with the E- Street Band, Cozy Powell with Rainbow, John Entwhistle with the Who.

Some school related event had a girlband called Fifth Avenue at it where one member has since died. Not the most stellar entry here. Other than that there'd be a few DJs - Barry Connell comes to mind.

Champion Jack Dupree.
On the Dylan/Clapton tour in Rotterdam Summer 1978.

I think when they did Blackbushe Airport (weird venue!) earlier on they had Joan Armatrading as 3rd billing.

P.S. Whatever happened to Blackbushe airport?
