GIG 351: Front 242 / Cubanate / Empirion – Shepherds Bush Empire, 11th October 1997
I'd really been looking forward to this gig. I'd previously seen Front 242 way back in 1993 (GIG 137) where they really impressed me live. Shame I had to wait four years before seeing them again but it was Saturday night and I was in a crammed Shepherds Bush Empire waiting for one of the … Continue reading GIG 351: Front 242 / Cubanate / Empirion – Shepherds Bush Empire, 11th October 1997

The last time I'd been to Shepherds Bush Empire was back in April 1996, which was also the last time I'd seen the fantastic New Model Army live. They were still a year off releasing their next studio album but did release a compilation album called 'Small Town England' in 1997. I'm not sure they … Continue reading GIG 350: New Model Army – Shepherds Bush Empire, 12th September 1997

Day 2 of the 1997 Reading Festival.
