Gary Numan - not for the music but for the bloody trip home - missed last train , ended up stranded in Chelmsford at 2am with friends who wouldn't pay the taxi fare to Colchester ( £30 between 4 people) BUT if I paid they were happy to tag along for free - thought fuck it we can wait til 6.30am for first train . Nightmare night , gave up on gigs in London after that - I avoid at all costs and will go to Norwich/Cambridge/Tunbridge - whatever - to avoid London for Stranglers gigs .

An old girlfriend of mine persuaded me to go and see the Bay City Rollers being supported by The Adicts at The Lyceum in the early 80's.

Now bearing in mind I didn't like either band and I was heavily into The Stranglers/NWOBHM/SKA it was not my cup of tea, but I actually loved both bands :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: I kid ye not!!
