Between the last time I saw CNN (GIG 175) supporting Sheep on Drugs in June and this gig a certain global cable news channel lawyers became involved which resulted in a name change from CNN to XC-NN. A name change that seems to have appeased certain quarters as they continued to use it until they … Continue reading GIG 183: XC-NN / 94-Nil – The Electric Ballroom, 20th September 1994

GIG 182: Creaming Jesus / Judda – The Electric Ballroom, 13th September 1994
One of my dream line-ups. Creaming Jesus AND Judda - two of my favourite live bands playing the Ballroom on a Tuesday night. Unbeknown to me at the time this was to be the last time I saw Creaming Jesus live as they split up later in the year. Which was a shame on so … Continue reading GIG 182: Creaming Jesus / Judda – The Electric Ballroom, 13th September 1994
GIG 181: Blessed Ethel – The Electric Ballroom, 6th September 1994
This gig, and a couple more coming up, have me slightly confused. They all take place on a Tuesday evening but I've got them down as being at The Electric Ballroom. That in itself isn't unusual, I frequented the Ballroom a lot for their club nights and it was also used as a live music … Continue reading GIG 181: Blessed Ethel – The Electric Ballroom, 6th September 1994
GIG 176: Toyah – The Electric Ballroom, 29th July 1994
I'd forgotten I'd seen Toyah at The Electric Ballroom until writing this entry. I knew I'd seen her live at The Marquee at one point (which is still to come at some point) but not twice, as I apparently did. I think one of the reasons for my confusion is that we all went clubbing … Continue reading GIG 176: Toyah – The Electric Ballroom, 29th July 1994
GIG 133: ? – The Electric Ballroom, 15th October 1993
I almost skipped this one and let the Gig count jump from 132 straight to 134. But there was a GIG 133, at The Electric Ballroom in Camden Town on 15th October 1993 and it would have annoyed the hell out of me jumping over it if I ever came back to look at this … Continue reading GIG 133: ? – The Electric Ballroom, 15th October 1993
GIG 126: The Outcast Band – Electric Ballroom, 20th August 1993
The Electric Ballroom, in Camden Town, on Friday nights was home to the Full Tilt club for over two decades. It was also my frequent haunt on Friday nights for probably most of that time. Goth, Industrial and EBM on the ground floor with more classic rock and metal upstairs. Decent priced drinks and, for … Continue reading GIG 126: The Outcast Band – Electric Ballroom, 20th August 1993
