A guest at Plymouth Pavilions, Plymouth on Thu, 02 Sep 2021
Terrible sound quality at the gig. After the first half it became slightly better. The crowd sang and danced anyway but personally I won't be coming here again.

First ever concert aged 16..great gig..went on to see hundreds of bands after this whet my appetite. Lasting memory was one of the band climbing up the speaker stack to the tune of "Monkey Man"
