Prescot just outside of Liverpool, I M aged fourty six, I have been to a few gigs in liverpool I have see duran, duran, the human league, and gary numan fantastic to see live it the carling academy o2iverpool, lSt band I went to see was the specials with the late Terry hall. I agree with you on your blog bands you wish you went to back in the day. I wish i went to see ultravox or Japan David Sylvia. A bricklayer I know who lives near wete I live is well into his eighties music. He went to see Gary numan in London 1980 but was pissed off that he went all the way to London. But gary numan came to liverpool empire, my mate joey also seen ultravox 1981 liverpool empire as well as Japan David Sylvia bNd at liverpool royal court theatre as well as liverpool empire. And i am also single, no children I am a belief that love will eventually happen when men least expect it. I will have to keep checking out your blog. Ian

Queen – Liverpool Empire – 14 November 1975. Lots of big hair, even bigger teeth and beelzebubs aplenty. Still one of my favourites of all time. No actual video I can put my hands on but the concert was referenced in the recent Bohemian Rhapsody movie. What days of innocence!
