First - Rainbow at Bingley Hall in Stafford 1980
Last - Extreme/Living Colour at Wolverhampton Civic Hall last December.
Next - The Anchoress at Le Pub in Newport on 31st May.
1000s of gigs in-between; I've seen everyone that I've ever wanted to see, I literally no longer have a bucket list. |

I think First was ELO some time in early 80’s at NEC. Was snow everywhere and a lot of folk never turned up.
Last was Simple Minds in Nottingham in March.
Next is The Eagles in Manchester next month, assuming that the Co Op arena is still open. Really looking forward to it. |

"The Levellers, Minsthorpe 1992
The Hives, Leeds 2024
Hate to say I told you so, but I love The Hives "
They’re probably the best I’ve seen live. Great combination of music and interaction with the audience.  |

"Vice squad..100 club London ..1981

I saw GBH at The Richmond in Brighton back in the 90’s. They were mainly doing tracks from A Fridge Too Far album at the time. Sperm of Doom were also on earlier. I doubt any of you will have heard of them lol. |

Evanescence 20 years gig! Amy Lee’s voice blew me away entirely.
Tenacious D 2 weeks ago in Leeds. Again, absolutely fantastic. Best gig I’ve ever been to in fact. Had an amazing night. Going VIP help a lot in that regard though. The out in Leeds city centre after.
Music never dies  |

My first was at Old Trafford football ground in the late 90's
IIRC it was a charity gig Supergrass, Madness, M People & Simply Red
Bit of an odd mix I guess
Last gig was First Aid Kit at the Manchester Apollo |
