Only just discovered this part of the forum. Some great songs here. Feel I need to contribute. This is a song thats been stuck in my head for the last few days.

Was at that concert. Was in 1983 and can't believe it's nearly forty years ago. I went with three friends and we can be seen on the album cover.

Awesome. I’m jealous it must have been incredible.

It was a great gig. One of my friends queued up at the Hammersmith Odeon for tickets. Ah. the days when you had to queue up at venues and football grounds for tickets. I've been trying to remember which songs were played at the concert and aren't on the album. Industrial Disease was played and I think also Expresso Love and Solid Rock. Possibly Twisting by the Pool. After all these years my memory is a blur.

I'm looking forward to going to a concert again. The last one I went to was in early March. It was to see Limehouse Lizzy a tribute to the Wonderful Thin Lizzy.

As an aside I hope that when live music is available again that people attend concerts at small rather than large venues. Two reasons: it helps the small venues and two, I find concerts at the small venues more intimate. You are up close to the stage and if you're lucky you get to chat to members of the band afterwards. They appreciate comments and support from those in the audience.
