US band Pist*On were the live band at Feet First at Camden Palace on this evening. They were a gothic metal band in a similar vein to Type O Negative (who were friends of the bands), although never reached the same heights at their Brooklyn neighbours did. Pist*On were touring to support their first album, … Continue reading GIG 323 : Pist*On – Camden Palace, 1st April 1997

GIG 318 : Pitchshifter – Camden Palace, 25th February 1997
I'd not managed to make it to a gig for almost a month, due to moving, the Camarilla, and friends keeping me busy. But tonight I managed to make it back to Camden Palace for the legendary Feet First club night. I'd been drinking with some friends down in Wardour Street earlier in the evening, … Continue reading GIG 318 : Pitchshifter – Camden Palace, 25th February 1997
GIG 313 : My Life Story – Camden Palace, 17th December 1996
I loved my Tuesday nights at Feet First, the alternative night hosted by Jonathon and Eko. Each week they hosted the club night, featuring a live performance at midnight (occasionally two) and then continued with the club night afterwards. The bands ranged from the fairly well known, to the fairly obscure, but tended to be … Continue reading GIG 313 : My Life Story – Camden Palace, 17th 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. This was the third time I saw Cater The Unstoppable Sex Machine - and it seemed I was destined to see them every three years (GIG075 December 1990 / GIG120 June … Continue reading GIG 311 : Carter U.S.M. – Camden Palace, 10th December 1996
GIG 308 : London After Midnight – Camden Palace, 3rd October 1996
It was one of the rare Thursday nights at the short-lived goth night at Camden Palace. Following a similar pattern to Feet First (The incredibly popular and long running Indie night there on Tuesdays) the night featured DJs and a late night band, followed by more DJs. This evening it was the turn of Californian … Continue reading GIG 308 : London After Midnight – Camden Palace, 3rd October 1996
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 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
GIG 300 : Senser – Camden Palace, 23rd July 1996
Senser are a politically charged rap-rock band that formed in London in the late 80's/early 90's. They'd had a few singles and their debut album in 1994, "Stacked Up" had reached #4 in the UK album charts. They were a band I'd listened to both at home and out at club nights as they were … Continue reading GIG 300 : Senser – Camden Palace, 23rd July 1996
GIG 297 : Audioweb – Camden Palace, 25th June 1996
It'd been a few weeks since I'd last been at Camden Palace for their Feet First club night but here I was, in The Southampton Arms with friends on a Tuesday night with the Palace across the street beckoning to us all. It would have bad not to pop over for a few hours of … Continue reading GIG 297 : Audioweb – Camden Palace, 25th June 1996
GIG 282: Joyrider – Camden Palace, 7th May 1996
After the Zoe gig at The Water Rats Michael and I headed the short distance to Mornington Crescent for Camden Palace's Feet First clubnight. This evening's midnight band were Joyrider, whom I'd seen and enjoyed the previous December supporting Therapy (GIG 253). They were a rock band from Northern Ireland who'd released a few singles … Continue reading GIG 282: Joyrider – Camden Palace, 7th May 1996
