Abba - Gimme Gimme Gimme

Travis =- Why Does It Always Rain On Me?

Prince - Purple Rain

Deep Purple - Demon's Eye

Spinal Tap - Heavy Duty

Dire Straits - Heavy Fuel

And circularly... Brand New Heavies - Midnight at the Oasis

Oasis - Roll With It Pun apologies.

Bread - Everything I Own

Meatloaf - Midnight at the Lost and Found

That narrows it down to about 95% of the punters!

I started seeing them in '89/90 - and saw them a *lot* after that. I remember (well, half-remember) the 12 and 24 hour shows at the Brixton Academy, staggering out at dawn and somehow making it to Victoria to get a train. Just wish I'd been a couple of years older - I'd have been blown away by the Black Sword tour, I'm sure. I did manage to play gigs with quite a few (ex) members in the early 2000s, which was - for me anyway - really cool, and I do have one of Alan Davey's old basses sitting next to me as I type this ?

Just too young to (be allowed to!) do those 1987 gigs. Mind you, it was Leeds...LSD and 2 Es after all. I loved that era (1987-1993ish) - and you listed 2 of my son's favourite songs too (I am deeply pleased he has good taste in music at the tender age of 8).

I feel that is stretching things a tad more than even I do!

Iron Maiden - The Evil That Men Do

That's just cruel.

I'll take prog as a genre ?

Hawkwind (no surprise, eh?) Electric Tepee tour, 1992, Brighton. I think it was the second night of the tour, and a friend and I had gone - we were somewhat disappointed when they came out as a three piece, expecting a lacklustre performance. Then the opened with Right to Decide off the album, which we'd never heard, and within seconds we were blown away - the sound was amazing, they were incredibly tight and seemed to be enjoying themselves immensely, and the song was catchy as all hell. The rest of the gig was great, but the first minute or so was mind-blowing.

I'm just educating you :-)

A fair point, except I loathe that song.
