Re: some BAD...
Adamski... yeah, now I remember him. Maybe Seal popped up for a single number at the end of the act. Thanks. Would love to see video from that night, last gig I ever saw in the UK before I emigrated.
Re: some BAD...
This is going to be a really useless post but someone somewhere has some professionally shot stuff from one of those nights. I remember seeing footage on TV of part of one song (there's tinsel around the mic stand) - I always wished the rest was available.sirrogerhunt wrote: ↑25 Feb 2017, 11:08amAdamski... yeah, now I remember him.

There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

Re: some BAD...
I remember watching this performance of JB as it went out. I can't remember the name of the show but it was on Channel 4. Unfortunately it was the only song broadcast.

Re: some BAD...
Yup, I went to two of those gigs -- there were four, as I recall -- and both were terrific. I remember going down there to get my tickets, and I was a couple pounds shy, and that was literally digging out every pound coin and other piece of loose change that I had...the guy looked at it, shrugged, and he took it all off me, and said, "Have a great time." Interesting venue and vibe there, too.Subterania was the final gigs for the original band before the break-up.

Re: some BAD...
Cool, Ralph. Proper vibe. Under the Westway. And it wasn't free but they let you in. That's why we love these guys.Chairman Ralph wrote: ↑30 Apr 2017, 11:58pmYup, I went to two of those gigs -- there were four, as I recall -- and both were terrific.

Re: some BAD...
Yup, that's why I do, too. That story is one of many situations that made my six-month sojourn in London (1989-90) such a great experience (which I may write about, at some point, once I extricate myself from the not-so-sexy stuff I have to do, to pay my rent). I can't tell you how many weekends I spent soaking up that vibe, though, be it Camden, Ladbroke Grove, or Portobello Road.Chairman Ralph wrote: ↑30 Apr 2017, 11:58pm
