Its just a shame that she came to the notice of people when it was to late for us to show her the recognition she deserves.

Toss up between Siouxsie and the Banshees in 1980, or the Red Hot Chili Peppers in 1989. Both were great concerts.

Most memorable gig was seeing the Beastie Boys at the height of their infamy, in 1986 I think. They were bottled off the stage without playing a note, to a rousing Scally chorus of 'We tamed the Beasties'.:D

It is definitely a shame... she died the day after my 16th birthday and I knew nothing about her until a few years ago:(
Thanks to Terry Wogan putting her song on air in about 2000

one "notable" show I attended/dragged to was local , Martholme Grange in the early 80s , featured a guy called Emile Ford who had been popular in the late 50s , hillarious to see all the mums and grannies going ga-ga over an old bloke obviously well past his prime . :D :D
