Glasvegas (the only gig I have ever walked out of, they were awful)
And I have seen Loyd Grossman perform with his punk band

They were good live weren't they? I had such a crush on Vom, the drummer even though he was about 3ft shorter than me Small but perfectly formed. Used to go up to their shop a lot too (what was the name of that place?)

Never seen Zodiac live, but I was in one of their videos...

Since it's 30 years since I saw my first band, and I saw alot in my youf, I couldn't possibly remember them all.

But 2 of the first were Orange Juice and Blancmange - anybdy remember them?

Tilly,I loved Orange Juice and Blancmange!
I never saw them live though.
My list would be an awful lot longer if I had had a job and didn't live in the wilds of Norfolk.
Serenity, I secretly wanted to be one of the Anadin Brothers.
Zodiac were VERY LOUD live! Everyone had to do the dying fly dance too, lying on your back with your arms and legs in the air. Oh what fun

Nick Cave is the only gig I've been to recently but saw a few good bands in the eighties and nineties (especially when DH was working at a music/comics mag and we got free tickets). lived up in Scotland in pre T in the Park days so festivals like Glastonbury might as well have been on the moon!

Two regrets- never seeing Japan live (mum wouldn't let me go) and 2nd-had tickets to a Wembley gig that had Queen, INXS and if I remember correctly U2 all on the same bill. Had a weirdo boyfriend at the time who made me sell the tickets. Sold them in Loot (does it still exist?) for £75 for two tickets!!

OMG

I love Jared Leto-he's so hot-shame he's so up himself though.

Ooh, yes, Prince! I loved him at the O2!
