August was chosen, I believe, to coincide with tabletop roleplaying’s gaming mecca that is Gen Con … Continue reading #RPGaDAY2022 Day 31 – When did you first take part in #RPGaDAY?

GIG 222: Sheep On Drugs / Cranium H.F. – LA2, 22nd July 1995
This was almost my last ever concert. It was a Saturday night and I did this gig at the LA2, headed to Slimelight all night, my parents for lunch and the afternoon on Sunday followed by seeing a load of friends on Sunday night. On Monday I was off to Manchester (well, Stockport) to stay … Continue reading GIG 222: Sheep On Drugs / Cranium H.F. – LA2, 22nd July 1995

GIG 221: The Rolling Stones / The Black Crowes – Wembley Stadium, 16th July 1995
When it comes to classic bands there are few that are bigger than The Rolling Stones. I was never hugely into The Rolling Stones, or The Beatles for that matter, from the 60's crop of bands. The Doors, Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix were more my thing. I would add Pink Floyd and Fleetwood Mac to … Continue reading GIG 221: The Rolling Stones / The Black Crowes – Wembley Stadium, 16th July 1995

GIG 220: 311 – Camden Palace, 11th July 1995
Tuesday night at Camden Palace had some good bands, some bad bands, and bands from all over the indie-rock-alt-dance spectrum. 311 were (or I should say are as they're still going) American alt.rock band that fused funk into the mix. I guess a little like Red Hot Chilli Peppers and a few other bands that … Continue reading GIG 220: 311 – Camden Palace, 11th July 1995

GIG 219: Catherine Wheel – Camden Palace, 4th July 1995
Tuesday night and back to Feet First at Camden Palace. We'd popped into the World's End in Camden for a few drinks beforehand, before wandering up Camden High Street for a nights clubbing. As with the usual Feet First pattern we danced until midnight, watched whatever band was on, and then continued to dance until … Continue reading GIG 219: Catherine Wheel – Camden Palace, 4th July 1995

GIG 218: Sunshot / John Palmer / The Valley Of The Dolls – Borderline, 3rd July 1995
Saturday may have seen us at Wembley Arena seeing big pop acts, but come Monday evening Mike and myself were back at The Borderline for something much more our usual fare of music. Tonight was a chance to see Sunshot again. I hadn't seen them for over a year (GIG 169) and that was way … Continue reading GIG 218: Sunshot / John Palmer / The Valley Of The Dolls – Borderline, 3rd July 1995
