Marilyn Manson was terrorizing concerned citizens of Britian for some reason back in 1996. Petitions had been made to councils to ban him from playing local venues and his debut UK live appearence was bounced from The Electric Ballroom, to The Astoria (as shown on my ticket) to finally Kentish Town's The Forum on the … Continue reading GIG 312 : Marilyn Manson / Fluffy – The Forum, 12th December 1996

GIG 311 : Carter U.S.M. – Camden Palace, 10th December 1996
December rolled round and it was time for a Carter Christmas Party at the Feet First Club in the one and only Camden Palace.

GIG 310: Inkubus Sukkubus – Acton Town Hall, 23rd November 1996
The Pagan Federation's 25th Anniversary Annual Conference. I'd helped out with a couple of these a few years earlier, and had also been on the Pagan Federation's Media Team briefly, but hadn't attended a Conferance in probably a couple of years until now. This years event had the added bonus of hosting an Inkubus Sukkubus … Continue reading GIG 310: Inkubus Sukkubus – Acton Town Hall, 23rd November 1996
GIG 309: Rosetta Stone / MESH / The Horatii / Leechwoman / Inertia – Astoria, 10th November 1996
I'd initailly brought a ticket for this all-dayer because The Nefilim were headlining. I was a massive fan of Fields of the Nephilim and had seen Carl (lead singers) more thrash-industrial tinged 'The Nefilim' once already in May (GIG 288) and had really enjoyed them. So I was looking forward to catching them again. Unfortunetly … Continue reading GIG 309: Rosetta Stone / MESH / The Horatii / Leechwoman / Inertia – Astoria, 10th November 1996

This evening it was the turn of Californian … Continue reading GIG 308 : London After Midnight – Camden Palace, 3rd October 1996
GIG 307 : Cries of Tammuz / Church of Babylon – The Underworld, 13th September 1996
I've been very neglectful in regards to my gig list postings. Life happened and I had very little time to continue my journey through the live music circuit and the bands I saw. I can't believe that my last gig post was back in early February - over 4 1/2 months ago! Must do better … Continue reading GIG 307 : Cries of Tammuz / Church of Babylon – The Underworld, 13th September 1996
