I hadn't been to The Bull & Gate, in Kentish Town, for a gig for a few years. It was a venue I always enjoyed when I'd been more regularly in the early 90's. Very much a "spit and sawdust" feel in the back rooms where the gigs were held. I'd seen a few good … Continue reading GIG 341: Sparrowman – The Bull & Gate, 4th July 1997

GIG 197: Skin Drill / Szekl Kurva – The Bull & Gate, 7th February 1995
Skin Drill really impressed us when we saw them a couple of weeks earlier (GIG 196), so when we heard they were playing The Bull & Gate in Kentish Town Angela, Michael, Richard and myself all headed down there on this Tuesday evening. Support came in the form of Szekl Kurva who, according to LastFM, … Continue reading GIG 197: Skin Drill / Szekl Kurva – The Bull & Gate, 7th February 1995

GIG 123: James Rays Gangwar / Judda / Godlike Bass – The Bull & Gate, 20th July 1993
I can't remember if the primary draw for this gig was James Ray Gangway or Judda - given that I really enjoyed Judda when I saw them a couple of months prior (GIG 118) but also really liked James Ray. Whatever the case it was a double bill that made me very happy to head … Continue reading GIG 123: James Rays Gangwar / Judda / Godlike Bass – The Bull & Gate, 20th July 1993
