Belfast - correct date 9/11/77. However, this gig never happened as it was BANNED at very short notice by the local council, who withdrew insurance cover.
Coleraine - correct date 10/11/77
(the press ads were published in the music papers before these dates were changed to the above)
1978
August Belfast - incorrect, definitely no gig in Belfast that month.
I am trying to find out where & when AC/DC & the Stranglers played on the same bill besides the Wembley Who gig in 79. From my archives I have the Stranglers supporting AC/DC in Swansea on 28 Oct 76 [Taken from a Sounds ad or listing I think]. But apparently AC/DC also Supported The Stranglers in 76 or 77, as a replacement for a support act that couldn't make it. Any idea??? Would probably have been between May and Sept 76. Any info appreciated Thanks!
I'll look into this at some point - If I find anything out I'll email you

Jim there was a gig at Cleethorpes which was early February (I think)
It was cancelled due to the stage not being big (high?) enough, I know:
I WAS THERE!
