@Long_live_rock_n_roll Depeche Mode, Crystal Palace UK, 31/7/93
Absolutely stunning show, Gahan at the peak of his drug-fuelled, rock god powers. Sisters of Mercy supporting and a beautiful warm summer’s day. 18yo me was in goth-rock heaven
So many. The last gig I went to, The Cure in Geneva last Nov was incredible, they give good gig. (Marred only slightly by contracting Covid, yes at a Cure gig, the irony).
But I have to say Marillion in Wembley Arena, Thieving Magpie tour in ‘87. It was the first gig I ever went to, I was 16, I was obsessed with the band, and they were at their best.
@Long_live_rock_n_roll don't know where I've been I missed this one but anyway, 2 that come to mind.
Pavement at the Palais Theatre Melbourne 2023 , was just such a great vibe going and the band genuinely were happy to be doing their business.
Fugazi and Shellac at the Collingwood town hall in Melbourne 1993, man what a show
