It's FridAT

This is specifically NOT for people who want to appear 'I was cool at the time'

The spotty (lets be honest) keyboard player from this went on to be one of he biggest selling songwriters of the 70s/80s and certainly Cleethorpe's greatest son

Dark Side of the Moon premiered at The Dome when they flubbed up Money and everything went wrong. An odd but memorable night. Who knew the monster the album would become and I still dine out on telling Pink Floyd fans 'I was there'.

Cracking track, but I don't recognise the keyboard player. Looks a dick. Why is it significant?

Edit, looked him up. Mmmmmmmmmm....no.

OK I'll play (by your rules):

Being at the last ever original Queen concert at The Dome. Being at the last ever original Queen concert at The Brighton Centre. They never returned as bigger venues were on the horizon.

not on the level of some of these but this has gone on to achieve cult status since it happened. As far as TV show performances go, it's the best I've ever seen

One of my favourites. She only ever covered other people's songs. Live in a bar with a few people and never seen until she had sadly gone.

Oui. I was always kind of anti-Kent ("I'm a grown man, I dont like sentimental music!!", but my then girlfriend forced me to go to one of their final concerts and it was probably the second best Swedish band I've seen live. Nowadays even occasionally listening to their albums..
