carryonsidney 22nd Oct 2023		Live Music Marillion @ Poole Arts Centre (1984)	Review Unbelievably I have just found out the support band was none other than the great The Cardiacs!? So I misrembered the gig, but undoubtedly the unusual time changes and what not certainly made an impression on the young me. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
carryonsidney 1st Oct 2023		Live Music Gang Of Four @ O2 Academy (2023)	Review Gang Of Four are back on a short UK tour - well worth seeing! ✔︎ Helpful Review?
carryonsidney 24th Sep 2023		Live Music Ramonas @ The Old Woollen (2023)	Review Great gig, I can highly recommend The Ramonas, they do an excellent spread of Ramones tunes and a section their own Ramonesque songs without ever falling into the bland "tribute band" territory. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
carryonsidney 8th Jan 2019		Live Music The Curtains @ The Air Balloon (1994)	Review This was the archtypical 3 men and a dog pub gig, as I was in Thee Henchmen we got up and did our bit to the hard core regulars of the pub who it seemed were of the old hard rock fan variety, we got a few claps for our fuzzed out garage thing. The Curtains got up and despite being much better than us their brand of Mod music dropped stone dead.... 5 people found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
carryonsidney 8th Jan 2019		Live Music Marillion @ Poole Arts Centre (1984)	Review Highly entertaining gig by Fish & Co, the very odd thing I remember best after 35 years was the somewhat experimental support band which basically played a kind of early Acid house/ industrial dance music of sorts, this did not go down well with the mainly HM audience however it turned out to be the future! 5 people found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
carryonsidney 18th Oct 2018		Live Music Deep Purple @ Wembley Arena (2003)	Review This was probably the most boring gig I have ever been too, bar none. Enlivened slightly by 'Freebird' and Ian Gillan's odd change of outfit after the 1st number. £28.50 + £3.50 booking fee + £5 car park should have asked for my money back! 5 people found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
carryonsidney 9th Nov 2017		Live Music Kiss @ Gaumont (1984)	Review A gig I went to (belated birthday present from big brother). We watched Bon Jovi, I didn't rate them at all (not heavy enough). Kiss were great live even sans the makeup, gig sound wasnt great as left hand PA speaker stack buzzed all through the gig. Funny I remember that but not my breakfast this morning! 5 people found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
carryonsidney 24th Oct 2016		Live Music The Persuaders [Bournemouth] @ Parley Memorial Hall (1991)	Review A sort of community project for young people, the bands didn't play in this order however as far as I know only the various members of The Persuaders would go onto make records (The Curtains, Hipster, Hoodwinks etc). On the back of the ticket I have written (about the Persuaders) "three people danced!" 3 people found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
carryonsidney 24th Apr 2016		Live Music Motörhead @ O2 Apollo (2011)	Review Provided I got the right year I was surprized at how quiet this gig was? A couple years later I saw the original Quo here and again it was quiet, not a great venue if you want hear it without fighting your way to the front. 2 people found this review helpful. ✔︎ Helpful Review?
