Some of the best gigs I've been to (in 40 years of gig-going) have been in the last 5 years - Killing Joke, Suede and Lee 'Scratch' Perry (RIP) at a three-day rock festival at Butlins, Bognor; Psychedelic Furs at Camden Roundhouse; Half Man Half Biscuit in Bristol a week before the first Covid lockdown; Lene Lovich also in Bristol; Patti Smith band here in Bath just two months ago - she's now in her mid-70s, but her voice is as strong and distinctive as ever, and she dances like someone half her age.
Oh, and going back a while, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds at The Troxy in Limehouse, on the 'Dig, Lazarus, Dig' tour - absolutely brilliant gig; Cave was (and still is) a mesmerising performer.
