I've been to a few gigs at the Civic - KJ & Play Dead was a memeorable one
with plenty of nutters jumpin off the balcony to start fights & Big Paul
faintin a couple of times 'cos the heat was intense.
Another one was Sex Gang Children & Ausgang where the Rubba Luv crew were
givin Andy some stick for some reason - it was a great place,I was only 15 &
the colour,noise & atmosphere 2nd to none.
Ever go to The Golden Eagle a few minutes walk away?
Saw Play Dead there but that was a bit too intimidatin!
Hells Angels downstairs & (again) Rubba Luv crew handin out pastings left
right & centre.Also saw Partisans,Blitz Varukers,GBH & loads of others
there........sigh.Its gone now like all my old haunts...sniffle.

He was at the Digbeth Hall, Birmingham pre gig on a crass tour and I was
passing the time of day away with him without being aware who he was.
Got home after the tour and TOTP was on with him doing Bella Legusis
Dead!

Did anyone here ever go to a gig at the Digbeth Civic Halls in
Birmingham? Crazy place with people throwing themselves off the
balconies. My son showed me a video with a mosh pit (I must be old) a
few years back and I grinned having survived Digbeth!

The one time I saw Bauhaus he took off his stinky
sweaty tights he'd been wearing for half the gig and
threw them in the crowd and they landed on my head. It
was like being attacked by one of the facehuggers from
Alien. I went off him a bit after that.
