It never wanes, but it bores.

I think Stuart Adamson may struggle.

I saw them play the Top Rank in 1979, Into the Valley was in the top 10, Stuart Jobson bounds onto the stage in PANTALOONS like a jack in the box, and bounds off within five seconds covered in gob and pint pots.

The scenes were indeed marvelous.

They are playing The Ritz in Manchester too, tickets ordered on Friday morning!

Yes I was as that gig, my favourite band for a while, i also saw them at the Sussex Uni in May 1979

Saw The Skids at free gig in a park in Edinburgh in the late 70s - must have been soon after they started. Wasn't impressed.

I saw Gary Numan at the Brighton Centre around the time Cars came out, one of the best gigs I have been to. I'm sure I also saw him before that tour, but not sure if it was The Dome or the Centre.

I saw The Damned a few times late 70s and early 80s, I honestly couldn't tell you who is in the band now.
