Hmmm let's have a little casting back and digging out the old memory box. Birmingham 81, everything was new and fresh Deeside 82, first signs for me of a different crowd Brixton Ace 83, the first truly great UK show? Bradford 84, the medley and then Face Up, and then going years without realising they'd come back on and done Thieves! The 84 UK tour, Chippenham, Gloucester, Portsmouth All of 85, simply a golden year when they were at their live peak Oxford and Poole 86 That October week - Brum, Malvern, T&C then the fookin' Albert Hall Not much in 87 to be fair, the curse of Poo Faith and the rot had set in, though some of the foreign gigs sound ok. Time travel in 88 at the start of Ceremony at GMex, how to move 50 yards in 5 seconds without being Usain Bolt 89 - can't remember much! 93 - I Remember Nothing 98 - wasn't interested 91 - boring 92 - good craic in Paris and Finsbury 95 - Les Vielles Charrues the highlight 96 - all good, especially Athens 11 - Troxy great night besides the Order!

Blimey, I'd have said that was their zenith. A band at the peak of their powers.
I never experienced a ruck at a gig to mirror the Finsbree Park one! |

They probably were at their zenith, yes, but it started getting more predictable, and the mass exposure Toothache got changed everything. Part of me sees this in an almost identical way to how Dec expressed how it changed for him in 1984 - they were still my band, our band in 86. In 87 they were everyone's band, and the affinity had changed. Ironically it had changed back by 2005-6 but has gone the other way again now.

What ruck at Finsbury? That was nothing compared to Reading 1998.
Manchester Apollo 1998. That's the one.
