Duran Duran at Birmingham NEC in 1982 - John Taylor was (and still is) GORGEOUS

Sheila I was there, if it was 1976? my favourite Reggae Singer. Brilliant guy, what a lose he was. Carolyn I will look out for that, by the way where they well drunk by the end of the night, trying to fight each other pmsl. What a bunch of blokes they were, pity the way Rod Stewart went liked him in the earlier days. Pat x

Paul McCartney and Wings Empire--Liverpool --September 1975 Kathleen

Yes Pat it would have been around that time, it was when Money in My Pocket was big in the reggae charts..thoses were the days thats for sure!

Might have been Barclay James Harvest. It was certainly at the Fairfield Halls Croydon. nell

Pat, I think you're probably right, but that's just like all the old concerts! It's hard to believe Rod's just turned 60, but I suppose it's all relevant, we're a lot older too! Carolyn

Sheila, That was the 2nd concert 1979, brilliant. I love seen Reggae Artists mentioned here, I always think people don't know who I am talking about, so it's great to speak to someone who was there, GREAT!!!! Respect Pat x

What year was that Bob? I know they came to Stockton on Tees and I think Des O'Connor was the compare.

Blimey Nell I havent heard that name in years! Pat, hardly anyone knows all the old ones I used to follow. I know exactly what you mean

Evening all , the first concert i went to was Billy Joel at The Wembley Arena 1984. It was "The innocent Man" tour,it was brill. Carole.

Sheila You feeling old or something? lol. Well all the people I was into are either dead or getting on and slowing down, but a lot of the old time Reggae Singers would give the newer ones a run for their money, BUT with QUALITY LMHO. Yep saw some good concerts at the Rainbow, I lived near it at that time. Pat x

Take That in Sheffield 1993

Dutch Swing College Band - Krefeld 1956. Happy days.

Hawkwind at a London University/ college do in 1971.

Yes Pat (to all of the above) lol

My mum went to see Jackson 5 and Donny Osmond I think, Lucia :-)

Tony Does your message mean you remember me? LMHO Or is it one of Jackie's many songs there was "Run Girl", "Come Back Girl" with Girl in the title and if I think a bit longer there would be more. He wrote "Keep On Running" and "Somebody Help Me" that Spencer Davis Group had hits with. Loved Jackie died of Heart Problems (due to Alcohol addiction). I have almost all his records. Pat x

Lucia I saw the Jackson FIve with Junior Walker and the all stars at Wembley in 1972, ask Mum was that the concert. Poor Junior Walker was sick that night, but the Jacksons were Brilliant, i loved them when I was younger lol...didn't like the Osmonds yuck. Pat x

I saw the Troggs at Horrabridge youth club in 1966 - before they were famous LOL Also saw Thin Lizzy - who were excellent - at the end of term disco at Totton Grammar in 1970. maggie

Can't remember the name ... going way way back in time ... Peter Frampton and David Jones were in it ... might have been at Greyfriars in West Wickham. Joy
