YES ! I seen them many times always great, and Steve How is brilliant guitar player. I dont think they will be the same now Jon Anderson has gone.

Black Sabbath -- Milton Keynes Bowl
Korn -- Newport Centre
Marilyn Manson -- Newport Centre (more so because loads of God botherers were protesting outside and some loony threw a shopping trolley off the top of the kingsway muti-storey car park at them!)
Def Tones -- Cardiff Uni
Pennywise -- Reading 99 (i think it was)
Limp Bizkit -- Un heard of when they supported Korn at newport centre (faith was awesome that night)

Paul Weller and the Beta Band. Numerous occasions, always put in the effort and not there just to rip the fans off, which cannot be said the same for Oasis, another of my favourite bands.

Olympia Theatre in Dublin was my favourite Weller gig.

The ruts,circa 1979, blew the top rank apart, closely followed by Tom robinson band, supported by stiff little fingers again at the rank "77 or"78. :ayatollah:

Would recommend the festivals as you get more for your money!

The Old Top Rank was a great venue for live bands.

Iron Maiden first Uk Tour with Di'anno on vocals absolutley tore the place apart, even scaring the dickie bowed bouncers!

Rory Gallagher 3 hour set felt like 1 hour

A band called Pig in a pub in Sidmouth. Two Bass players an Electic Violin, accordian a drummer with a doubloe bass drum.

Imagine Crass meets Sabbath with a dash of Fairport Convention. It might have been the 7% scrumpy though :D :D
