Carter USM at the Union Bar - they stormed off stage with the hump when the crowd surfing got out of hand.
Bad Manners at the Union Bar - proper party band.
And, not quite a gig, but saw King Kurt practicing in the recording studios down near College Avenue

Boy George playing a blinding set at Atomics then completely destroying a couple of us who gave him some light hearted abuse after with a single one liner  More recently Just Floyd always play a blinding set plus they are the only floyd act who play the whole of the Floyds Animals album. |

Quite a few at the Art College Back in the day, including Motorhead, Fairport Convention, Wilko Johnson, Eric Bell (original Thin Lizzy guitarist), Barclay James Harvest, to name but a few. Also, Slade and Gary Moore at The Corn Exchange, and more recently The Blues Band and at the Hazlitt a superb Led Zep tribute called Led By Zeppelin who did a truly brilliant version of Cashmire.
