Ever since 2010 I’ve kept track of the music I listen to each month. It’s fascinating to see how some bands stay with me over the years whilst others have their moment on my stereo before vanishing from my mind… well, until years later when I check out to see what I was listening to … Continue reading Angus’ Most Played Top 100 Bands April 2023

GIG 306 : All Living Fear – Camden Palace, 5th September 1996
I can't remember the name of it but a couple of friends had decided to start a goth night at Camden Palace on Thursdays. I'm not sure it was weekly as the only times I went was the first Thursday in September and the first Thursday in October - so it was quite possibly monthly. … Continue reading GIG 306 : All Living Fear – Camden Palace, 5th September 1996

GIG 305 : James Rays Gangwar / Sins of the Flesh II – The Underworld, 16th August 1996
It was a Friday night double bill. A gig at The Underworld to see James Rays Gangwar followed by heading across the street to Full Tilt at the Electric Ballroom for a night of goth/industrial clubbing into the wee hours of Saturday.

GIG 304 : Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds / Dirty Three – Brixton Academy, 15th August 1996
I love Nick Cave but had never seen him live before this gig. It was part of The Murder Ballads Tour, which is also one of my top two Nick Cave albums so was a fantastic way to experience my first Nick Cave gig. The gig was also notable for the very special guest appearance … Continue reading GIG 304 : Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds / Dirty Three – Brixton Academy, 15th August 1996
GIG 303 : Oasis / Manic Street Preachers / The Charlatans / Cast / Dreadzone / Kula Shaker – Knebworth Park, 11th August 1996
This was probably the hottest ticket of the summer of 1996. Oasis were kings of the world and were playing two massive sold out dates at Knebworth Park, with a host of support acts on each of the days. 2.5 million people tried to get tickets for these gigs, with the gigs braking box office … Continue reading GIG 303 : Oasis / Manic Street Preachers / The Charlatans / Cast / Dreadzone / Kula Shaker – Knebworth Park, 11th August 1996
GIG 302 : Altered States / Dream City Film Club – Borderline, 1st August 1996
Thursday night and a double Borderline bill of a gig and then the Borderline's Rockit Club. The gig was for goth band Altered States and one of my favourite bands Dream City Film Club. Having seen Dream City Film Club for the first time back in May (GIG 283) this was now the third time … Continue reading GIG 302 : Altered States / Dream City Film Club – Borderline, 1st August 1996
GIG 301 : 3 Colours Red – Camden Palace, 30th July 1996
Not that we needed an excuse to go to Feet First at Camden Palace, but this evening was one of our mates (Graham) 21st birthday so a gathering and party was to be had. The eveings band was an English indie/rock band called 3 Colours Red who'd formed a couple of years earlier in 1994. … Continue reading GIG 301 : 3 Colours Red – Camden Palace, 30th July 1996
