Cuts Drunk, did some one say drunk? It never crossed my mind to have a drink at a gig for years. I thought live music was amazing.Stevie Fucking Wonder? You lucky bastard.
Cuts Madness + Bodysnatchers, Liverpooly Royal Court.Shut Up tour? Went to that in Leeds too, Tiffanys. Ofcourse every gig couldn't be like that but by God it was rocking.
Rudi First band I remember seeing was Freddie & The Dreamers at Hull New Theatre. He did that daft dance where he kicked his legs about. I must have been about eight and they were part of a pantomime, I think. First proper gig was U2 and The Waterboys at Brixton Academy 1985.
Harvest Just watched the 90s one, thought Baker looked a bit lost. Who was that know it all little fucker on the panel?

fulmine Is it any different from that thing he did a year or so ago about various music genres? I remember the soul one with Martin Freeman and Mica Paris. And Danny Baker talking a lot.

Reggie_Perrin Having 300 channels means you can devote time for stuff like this. Sky Arts is pretty good too.

But it's in the queue after Salamander and Line of Duty.
luxury_scruff Just seen the 70's and 80's one. I'm a Danny Baker fan, so can forgive anything.To see Swoon and a diary scribbled review of a Prefab Sprout gig, made my night.90's one failed to record due to power cut.
Reggie_Perrin Pauline Black, Mark Ellen and Adam Buxton on 80s one. Viv Albertine fom Slits, lloyd Grossman and Peter Hook on 70s. Viv looking pretty swish for 59.
