you going Rob?

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

If he is, I bet he'd be very surprised if he met you there.

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

Very surprised I don't like the Buzzcocks :rolleyes::D

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

Not keen on any types of Cocks if I'm honest ! :idunno:

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

Who?

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

Yeah I attended the show. Thing about punk songs they all sound the same to me when I am not familiar with the group. I ended up liking the support acts more than The Buzzcocks... still was nice to see somebody famous play around here. I don't know why more bands are not put on there

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

I mentioned this on Facebook Rob, back in the sixties I saw the Beatles at King Georges, on the same bill was Roy Orbison, Cilla Black and Gerry and the Pacemakers, tickets were three shillings and six pence which is around seventeen and a half pence in todays money, wonder what you'd pay for a ticket today for a bill like that

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

I saw that :) - That would of been great to see The Beatles there. This was a smaller room downstairs - I had no idea of its existence. Perhaps there is a recording of that out there somewhere. I will keep an eye out

We went to the Grand at Clitheroe on the 16th March to see Barry Steele (a Roy Orbison Tribute) with an Elvis Presley tribute with him. It was £17.50 a ticket so who knows what it would cost for the original artists.

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

I've seen Barry Steele he's very, very good saw him at Salford Rugby club was brilliant

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

I very much doubt it Rob, even if somebody filmed you just wouldn't have been able to here the music, too many girls in love and screaming all night:D

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

Oh yeah I forgot - I have heard Beatles bootlegs before.. Unbearable to listen to.

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

now then jaysay the beatles at king georges hall in the sixtys, i was there, but if i remember rightly i paid five bob, big dee irwin little eva, as well as the beatles and roy orbison. gerry and the pacemakers. and maybe some i dont remember, but with all the screaming we never heard all of it,remember it well,how much for the similar big names now, would cost an absolute fortune,

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

Ha you were probably in the stalls, we were in the cheap seats in the balcony :D

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

Hardly a suprise, I was at that gig.:D:theband:

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

Ya the were all shouting



GET OUT


:D:D:D

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

Looking on the list of all the Beatles shows.... The one in Blackburn was 9th June 1963

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

Yes, I was also there.

Sorry to disappoint you folks but there was no Cilla Black or Little Eva - memory must be playing tricks. See attached poster from the tour. Cilla didn't start recording until the end of 63.

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

I also saw Big Dee Irwin at Nelson Imp think late 63, As Little Eve was the female voice on "Swinging On A Star" He apologised cos she was not with him, as she was on a tour in her own right, So would say Susie is right.:)

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

Sod it, sorry, didn't add the poster... here it is.

Having uploaded it I see there is a watermark - have now deleted it and will have to find the link instead.

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

ya remember it well Rob:D

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

Um could have sworn Cilla was there Susie, but I have been known to be wrong occasionally :D I know it was great value for money:mosher:

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

Here's a link to the poster - Ipswich but same tour. Not sure if this pic has a watermark or not but not going to run the risk of posting it...

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

The big O was the headliner at Blackburn, That was reason i booked, would never have seen the Beatles but fer that fact.

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

To say I was born 15 years after the show was performed yeah :D

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

Same reason here cashy in fact was actually surprised that I like both the Beatles and G and the P too, when you could hear them:rolleyes:

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

It figures! Read you like a book...:D

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

I knew about buzzcocks gig and maybe would have gone.Was in harrogate on my birthday so could not go.Having seen them support pistols and in manchester another time more recent ,i'd say they play it all too fast,too rushed.still great though. I dont mind :D

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

i made an audio recording of the show.....

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

Have you posted any of it on line? :confused:

Re: The Buzzcocks tonight @ King Georges Hall
 

I shared it on a website that people who record shows and upload them via torrent (ROIO recordings only on this site) though the activity isnt illegal imho... cant link it here either way
