What was the FIRST gig you saw?

.....considered very edgy these days what with a set at Glastonbury & even the Guardian seem to like them.

Yeah, but you forget that Chas & Dave have reworked all the old cockney stuff into a contemporary gangsta-rap stylee - my favourite being Knees Up Mother F**kah

Pah! I was at THE Isle of Wight 1969.
And the Stones in Hyde Park, although It was so crowded and we so far back we could hardly hear a thing. After about 20 mins we said sod it and went to the pub.

Ps And Marianne Faithful at Bristol Uni. Circa 1967.

Did I see you there: http://forums.contractoruk.com/gener...tml#post826890

Iron Maiden, Cornwall Colosseum 1986.

Although if MS is going to count the Radio One Roadshow then it's Plymouth 1982.

I've long hoped that when my turn comes for old folks outings that Vera Lynn, Roll Out the Barrel, Lambeth Walk etc would be long forgotten.

And now those Cockney gits make a come back.

What an awful thought.

Retirement outings to the accompaniment of Chas 'n' Dave??????

Agree with you there darling.

Not sure if it counts as a gig, but I did go to the Radio 1 roadshow at Margate in 1982, with Peter Powell. The live band was Chaz and Dave...
