Jump to: Newest in thread
Jay from jaminiaque he used to go to the local public school and come into the pub I used to work in. He would collect glasses for me for a pint. It wasn't until years later I found out it was the same guy |

Saw Oasis at Hackney Town Hall on one of their first London gigs. Not a fan later but they were very good that night. |

Not all that North of North London |
Radiohead twice in a matter of weeks supporting different bands at The Barrel Organ in Birmingham. They had one okay song abd I thought the singer was an egotistical knob, I stand by my first opinion!
Saw the manic steet preachers in the same venue when then were playing 25 minute sets and mot plugging Richey Manic's guitar in. They were incredible, huge energy.

I was at that but to be fair they had already had a number one album by this point |

As I went to a LOT of gigs when younger caught quite a few bands in their very early days. Esp as support bands.
.
Nirvana supporting TAD
Radiohead supporting Kingmaker
Muse supporting Live
Kaiser Chiefs supporting a mate's band in a pub. Also playing were 10,000 Things who spawned actor Sam Riley
Green Day in a snooker club in Huddersfield.
Spacehog a few times in pubs etc... Their lead singer would go on to marry Liv Tyler as they found fame in the USA mainly.
Red Hot Chili Peppers in a pub in Fulham
PJ Harvey supporting my own (very unknown) band!

The housemartins round about 1984/5, never heard of them, my mate put the gig on n no one turned up n I thought they were great, lot better band back then before they started to release records. |
