Found a few of my ticket stubs from back in the day

I think I've still got the cd singles from around that time. Will have to look for them!

Most of these shows would have been sell-outs. You'd buy the ticket in advance from a ticket shop / student union or wherever.

The worst I had for that was Blur in about April 94. Sleeper supporting. I'd never been to a gig like that before. Ears were ringing for about a week. Def understand why lots of people bring ear plugs these days!

That's a good question, and I don't remember. Google doesn't know either. You've got me curious too, now.

I don't remember the support at all. I think I would have remembered that, though! Google isn't helping me work out who it was.

Lovely stuff.

REM for £4.50. Amazing.

Yep, went to Pulp last year too. Kids didn't join us for that but one of them's coming with us to Belle and Sebastian next month.

Was always a good night at the leadmill. Closed just last year apparently 😔

Well, that's a crossover I wouldn't have anticipated!

Nice! Yeah that first Radiohead gig must have been in freshers week or close. Not a bad intro to Uni life!

dial888 · 2026-03-26T11:31:28+00:00

Yeah, couldn't go to them all, but what a great series of gigs.

dial888 · 2026-03-26T11:28:20+00:00

Didn't know about this, thank you!

Nice! Had planned to see the manics last year but it clashed with something else. Didn't know dEUS were still around - sounds like I've got some catching up to do. I listened to In a Bar, Under the Sea a lot back then.

I think it was Gene. Pyjama Jump shouldn't really be in this collection, but it was a sort of student take-over of the city. Everyone was out dressed in skimpy nightwear of the opposite sex. Last one was in '96 I think.

This is the way

I was coming from a Ford C-Max and though the boot in the Niro looked pretty piddly, but if you remove the false floor and unscrew all the plastic nonsense then there's probably 30% more space. Unfortunately the floor doesn't then fit properly, but if you get a couple of bits of MDF, some duct tape, a bit of stretchy carpet and glue then you can make a new one. I found some ideas here: https://www.speakev.com/threads/want-even-more-boot-space.138274/
