Gig marathons
Posted by: Kevin-W on 10 July 2009
Earlier today I was going through my gig tickets album and noted one particularly busy week.
In one week in August 1984 I went to five gigs:
Monday - Jazz Defektors & Kalima
Tuesday - 52nd Street & Quando Quango
Wednesday - Stockholm Monsters & Section 25
Friday - The Durutti Column
Saturday - Psychic TV & A Certain Ratio
The first four were part of Factory Records' Factory At The Riverside festival (FAC121!
) at the Riverside Studios in Hammersmith; the ACR gig was an unrelated event at Hammersmith Town Hall.
Anyone else had a similarly intense bout of gig-going?
