    Sister Sledge at Birmingham Alexandra Theatre in 1991 - they were great! :oops:

    I saw them at Glato in 2004, and thought they were pretty good for a Saturday morning while i was eating my breakfast. :D


    Shameful gigs? Not of my own volition:

    My first wife dragged me along to a few real atrocities. Bryan Adams in 94 or 95 - I was cringing throughout the gig and hoping noone I knew would see me; while pretending to like it so my wife didn;t get upset.

    Also about that time she forced me to see Dave Stewart live which was very difficult to deal with and I wish I could have just walked out. the supprt act was good though - Terry Hall - but the w*nkers at this gig talked all the way through his act! :evil:

    And in 1986 I saw Sting;s Dream of The Blue Turtle Travesty Tour, and in 1987 I saw David Bowie's Glass Spider Embarressing Old B@stard who used to be good tour.

    In my defence, I was quite young.

    Things got worst when they played this.

    Time for my confession. My sins consist of Steps and All Saints, both in Birmingham NIA or NEC. The All Saints gig didn't cost me anything in effect as I bought 4 tickets for Bristol and sold them all making enough profit to pay for the ticket and coach travel to B'Ham. At the Steps concert I felt very old as the crowd consisted of sub 15 year old girls with embarrased parents.

    you forget all the gay men as well... felt like a right plum
