Dr John at the Yale, couldnt believe I was seen an icon in a 300 seat pub.
Buckwheat Zydeco again at the Yale the, the day after Katrina hit New Orleans, the band didnt know if they had homes and families to go back to the audience was all in mourning for the destruction we were watching on TV, could have been terrible but everyone lost themselves in the music and they played for hours, we celebrated the city.
Thin Lizzy, Hammersmith Odeon 1976
Funkadelic at the Wild Buffalo, Bellingham, again couldnt believe I was seeing a musical God in a little bar in the arse end of nowhere
Adam and the Ants at the Marquee, 1977 and a hundred other punk bands including the Clash for a couple of bucks a show at various pubs around London
