The Rolling Stones in Brighton.

[Binney on acid]

Isn't it strange how some dates stick in your memory? Did anyone else on NSC see The Rolling Stones at 'The Big Apple', supported by the groundhogs, on 10th March 1971? Forty years ago today. It was part of the European leg of the 'Sticky fingers' tour.

Big Apple? At the old Hove Town Hall 1965ish before it burnt down.

I was there - bunked in for nothing after watching us beat Fulham 3-2

I was there - 40 years - I must be nearly as old as Mick Jagger

I missed out on the Big Apple experience I'm afraid.

I saw The Groundhogs with David Bowie as support though, at The Dome

You and me both!

My father saw The Stones in Brighton, at The Hippodrome.

 

[The Antikythera Mechanism]

I was there, predominantly to see the Groundhogs. "Split" remains one of my favourite albums and "Cherry Red" one of my favourite tracks. The Stones were ok though.

Was at that one as well. Bowie fluffed the words to "Space Oddity"
