2. Super Furry Animals (Cardiff International Arena)
3. Brand New (Wembley Arena)
4. Blink 182 (Tampa Bay, Florida)

its open for everyone! i have only had little over 10 years experience in gigging, so still young! but if people have seen GREATS such as the beatles, clash, beatles, even sinatra, put them down, but only your TOP DRAWER performances. or the gig as a whole.
I could have put down Cliff Richard in my list, but that was more of a bloody nightmare!!!!until Devil Woman came on! what a tune!!

In time honoured fashion these are in no particular order -

Prodigy (Manchester Apollo)
Ian Brown (Cardiff Uni)
Super Furry Animals (Sub 29 Cardiff)
Manic St Preachers (Small venue in Cardiff, cant remember it's name, a few months before Ritchie went Missing)
Oasis (old Wembley)

Just checked, that'll be 1988 and 1990.
 
Wish I'd seen them pre 1980. Cry
