I was really looking forward to this evenings trip down to Feet First at Camden Palace. The fact that I'd probably not managed to get to bed earlier than about 2am over the last two weeks due to gigs, clubbing, Gen Con UK, and playtesting White Wolf's Wraith: The Oblivion - whilst still managing to … Continue reading GIG 172: Eskimos & Egypt – Camden Palace, 31st May 1994

GIG 162: Monsterland – Camden Palace, 5th April 1994
Not content with a jammed packed Easter Weekend my first day back at work concluded with a trip in to Camden and then off to Camden Palace for the regular Tuesday night "Feet First" club. A friend, Oli, was turning 16 the next day so it was an excuse for a party. The band of … Continue reading GIG 162: Monsterland – Camden Palace, 5th April 1994
GIG 156: Cardiacs – Camden Palace, 15th March 1994
Another Tuesday, and another night at Feet First at Camden Palace. Tonights band was the Cardiacs, who had formed back in 1977 and continued to play up to 2007. They would have continued for longer but frontman Tim Smith suffered a heart attack in June 2008 after leaving a My Bloody Valentine gig which left … Continue reading GIG 156: Cardiacs – Camden Palace, 15th March 1994
GIG 152: CNN / Maitreya – Camden Palace, 22nd February 1994
Camden Palace at it's best. Tonight was a combination of a fantastic crowd, fantastic band (or bands on this occasion as it was one of the rare times that the Feet First Club had two bands playing on the same night), at an already fantastic club and venue. Now I used to go to Camden … Continue reading GIG 152: CNN / Maitreya – Camden Palace, 22nd February 1994
GIG 150: Huggy Bear – Camden Palace, 15th February 1994
Tuesday night and The Feet First Club at the Camden Palace once again beckoned. A fairly large group of us descended on Mornington Crescent, took the walk up the steps to the once grand old theatre, paid our dues at the door, and hit the dancefloor ands bars within. I loved Camden Palace. It was … Continue reading GIG 150: Huggy Bear – Camden Palace, 15th February 1994
GIG 148: Skyscraper – Camden Palace, 8th February 1994
I was, at this point, still only an infrequent visitor to Camden Palace's Feet First Alternative Night on Tuesday's. I loved the venue, but had probably only been about a dozen times in four years - although that would change pretty quickly. Todays midnight band was a British rock band called Skyscraper. I'd not really … Continue reading GIG 148: Skyscraper – Camden Palace, 8th February 1994
GIG 120: Carter U.S.M. – Camden Palace, 8th June 1993

Cheap entry (usually £2 with a flyer or £4 without), £2 a pint or bottle of Pils for £1, doors open at 9pm, band on at midnight, club wraps up a few hours later. Dash back on the night bus, … Continue reading GIG 120: Carter U.S.M. – Camden Palace, 8th June 1993
GIG 115: Daisy Chainsaw – Camden Palace, 9th March 1993
After seeing the Vendemmian gig at the Dome we headed to the underground, and the three stops between Tufnell Park and Mornington Crescent, to finish the night off at Camden Palace and the ‘Feet First’ club. Feet First always had a live band on around midnight and we were quite keen on getting to see … Continue reading GIG 115: Daisy Chainsaw – Camden Palace, 9th March 1993
GIG 099: Redd Kross – Camden Palace, 14th April 1992
We ended up at the Feet First club at Camden Palace as they were having an "Album Preview Launch" for The Cure's "Wish" album - their first album since the stunning "Disintegration" back in 1989. Camden Palace was a favourite of mine for many years, as every Tuesday they'd have a massive alternate/indie club night … Continue reading GIG 099: Redd Kross – Camden Palace, 14th April 1992
GIG 067: The Bridewell Taxis – Camden Palace, 25th September 1990
The Bridewell Taxis were one of the first bands around the so-called 'Madchester' scene, although they never made it to to heights like some of the scene bands did. I was never really into the whole 'Madchester' scene (I loathed The Happy Mondays for instance) but Camden Palace put on a wide variety of bands … Continue reading GIG 067: The Bridewell Taxis – Camden Palace, 25th September 1990
