BaaLocks Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 11 hours ago, Bob The Badger said: List 6 bands or people you have seen perform live, but one of them is not true. Here are mine. 1. The Stranglers 2. Joy Division 3. Madonna 4. Kylie Minogue 5. Simple Minds 6. The Buzzcocks Note: I did not invent this utter waste of time, I totally stole it off Facebook. If you went to the same first concert I did you would have seen Joy Division supporting The Buzzcocks at the Assembly Rooms. Stranglers and Simple Minds, who were actually supported by China Crisis (back to the other Northampton Balloon Festival thread) all played there in that time. And not a ticket above £3, though it seems you could sell the stub for fifty times that now (or at least list it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve had some great bands from here everything from the Bee Gees, the Saints Powderfinger and the Go Betweens. I’ve got their cd’s but unfortunately didn’t see them live. Cattle and Cane is one of my all time favourites, reminds me of my hometown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw Simple Minds in Nottingham to a ¾ empty venue, forget which now. I set off to go and see The Stranglers, but missed my connection in Bakewell. Watched the Sheffield bus pull off as mine pulled in ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiss That list started so well and then tapered off a bit, ending in what must surely be a jest. i refuse to believe you went to a Kiss concert.

Cattle and Cane is one of my all time favourites, reminds me of my hometown. Apologies I never replied to this. I managed to see them 3 times, best one was a long, one off show at the Barbican where they played for ages. They released it as a live album too. I saw Robert Forster last year, definitely go and see him. He plays a few Go-betweens song too and his solo stuff is great. There is a really good Go-betweens documentary if you haven't seen it. It was on Sky Arts in the UK. My mate lives in Brisbane now so will hopefully go there one day to see the Go-betweens bridge! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
