Sunday 24th October 1976, they supported Patti Smith @ Birmingham Odeon. Got a ticket stub of this gig.
They might have played two nights.

The 24.4.79 Portsmouth Odeon should read Portsmouth Locarno. However, this gig was cancelled due to poor ticket sales. I know, I had a ticket and it took me six months to get a refund.

The Purple Helmets DID play The Astoria though around the same time.I went and still have the ticket, will have to dig it out. (A Friday night April '88 ) Pretty sure the original information was taken from my ticket stub!

The John McCarthy benefit gig featuring the Purple Helmets still doesn't feature in the 1988 section.

London Hippodrome - October or November '88 methinks.

Gotta feeling that the Marquee gig was later on. I remember receiving a flyer at the Amnesty gig, some kinda S.I.S event. I think Polyphonic Size were on the bill too.

Correct TBC - 24th June 1988 (with Polyphonic Size supporting) and it was an S.I.S. Fan Club gathering.
