Cubist said:1983, Sheffield City Hall. Dire Straits. So pissed he forgot the lyrics to Sultans of Swing FFS.
Dire Straits were our local pub band (The Sultan obviously) we saw them one time in a small pub in Deptford, the 'stage' was a load of tables pushed together. At the highpoint of the gig the drummer and the entire kit dissapeared through the stage as the tables came apart.
Having said which, up until that point it had been a good gig.
