Owen :lol: :lol: :lol: I didn’t manage any naughty mushrooms at Steve Hillage..but I tanned a whole bottle of vodka..I was supposed to be sharing it with my pals..but it slipped my mind. I’d promised to bring my brother home a Hillage poster..but was found curled up on top of it in the toilets in a pool of sick. I think I enjoyed the gig :lol:
10 September, 2006 at 10:43 pm #240967and Chris Squires Fish out of Water was better than Hillage you b@stards!!!
10 September, 2006 at 10:48 pm #240968we were probably at some of the same gigs..James. Todd Rundgren..Camel [did you know Pete Bardsley died recently?] Hawkwind. I don’t suppose you were ever into Caravan? Never saw them at the Apollo…but That would have been a gig! Lynyrd Skynyrd..I still remember where I was when I heard about the crash…my bro played Freebird non-stop for a month…Was also at a great Gong concert..with Bloomdido and Yoni..but was too wasted to remember where I was. Marvellous :lol:

10 September, 2006 at 11:14 pm #240970Do I get brownie points for saying that I saw Genesis with Gabriel TWICE! Lamb tour 1975 (Apollo) – Mrs Thompson bought us the tickets as we were youngsters (awww she sadly died of breast cancer :( )- and Milton Keynes in the mud in 1982 (I think) – Genesis kindly bailing out the impoverished Gabriel. I also saw Gabriel solo several times including an entire set sung in German in Berlin.
10 September, 2006 at 11:22 pm #240971It’s a good thread JB, but too many performances that ought to be five star aren’t.
I just found David Bowie and Lou Reed performing Queen Bitch! 8)
Hasn’t got five stars though. :roll:10 September, 2006 at 11:22 pm #240972Thanks Poshy :lol:
James..saw the Lamb tour April 75 at the Usher Hall..it had been postponed from the previous November..which p/i/ssed us off..as by the time we got to see them they had gathered in popularity and we wanted to keep them all to ourselves Do I get any Brownie points for mentioning that Steve Hackett winked at me..before I nearly choked to death on the dry-ice..we had front row tickets! I was VERY VERY YOUNG at the time :oops:

10 September, 2006 at 11:27 pm #240974He wasn’t winking at you Es, he was winking at me cos he knew I preferred Chris Squire
10 September, 2006 at 11:34 pm #240975Owen..loved David Bowie best in his Ziggy days. The Man Who Sold The World was one of the first L.P.s I bought [the first was The Best Of the Move..and I kinda pinched that one] that followed about a year after I bought Starman as a single. I had quite a stash of singles before leaving them in front of the fire and finding them warped into ashtrays. My folks claimed on the insurance..all I got was enough to but two new singles..one of them was Slades Look Wot You Done..that started me collection up again. :roll:
