First gig that you went to?

I choose to not answer this, as it will destroy any shred of credibility that I may have remaining around here. In my defence, I was 7 years old and got taken there by my mum and aunt. No, I'm not telling

You've got your mitigation in, let's have the confession...

Either 808 State at G-Mex or Inspiral Carpets at the Queen Elizabeth Hall. Early 90‘s. My memory is terrible but I did thoroughly enjoy both.

I don’t think I have any street cred anyway so I’m going to put it out there.

I was 10, went to see Take That in Cardiff. My auntie took me and it was amazing! I’m not ashamed to say that when they tour now I go and see them. Sadly my auntie passed away in 2016 but it’s one of the best memories I have of spending time with her

Sweet thread and stories.

I think mine was The Prodigy in August 1996 at a music festival called Winterthurer Musikfestwochen, near Zurich. I was still a teenager and a big fan of The Prodigy. The relatively small festival was known at the time for their great lineups - usually mostly acoustic bands.

The 11 or 12 days festival in the old town of Winterthur still exists and it's a very chilled non-mainstream highlight every year. The budget became much smaller compared to back in the days, but the city still supports it and many people donate, so weekdays it's even free.
