Hugh Cornwell @ St. Helens 1995

Met ol' Shug after the show and he goes "your a bit young aren't you" and signs me flyer "To my youngest fan"

My first proper grown up gig was The Police at The Top Rank in Swansea.
Snippets of the Message in a Bottle video were filmed in the street outside earlier that day.

Siouxsie and the Banshees, Leeds University, 1980. Without doubt the loudest gig I have ever been to. I actually had impaired hearing and tinnitus for a day afterwards.
