My Gig List

Seeing Lucinda Williams this weekend has got me thinking about all the other amazing artists I have seen in concert. My memory has never been my strongest feature so now that I have started a blog, I thought I would try and write them all down roughly in the order I saw them with details of venue, where I can remember this. Here goes:

• First ever gig - The Euythmics - The Lyceum in London
• Alison Moyet or Yazoo (cant remember which or where I saw her)
  
• Southern Death Cult - The Lyceum - can't remember much cos v.drunk!

• The Monochrome Set - somewhere in London
• The Meteors - Riverside Club, Surrey

• Del Amitri (Crawley & London Shepherd's Bush)
• Deacon Blue (Brighton)
• World Party - The Forum, London
• Paul Weller - Brixton & Royal Albert
• Lenny Kravitz - Brixton & Wembly Arena (Brixton was amazing)
