[kj] OT : Meet Britain's biggest gigaholic ...

[jerry bodkin]

 How do festivals rate in the count up? I mean, if you do all 3 days at a festival and see 5 different bands a day, does that count as 15 gigs or just 1 cos you went in and didnt come out again til the end, if you know what i mean.

 I see that he went to the sweaty Subterania gig in 1994 but that was the only KJ gig I noted since the Joy Division supports. Still he saw Kajagoogoo ! Quantity not quality, eh ! Though a large chuck of the gigs were when he worked as security (that is cheating a tad), it's still an amazing dedication over 35 years ... that most I did in a year was 80 ... in 1987, I only went to 3 gigs ... was married and with a baby I've done well over 700 in 28 years and I thought that was some going ... Jane, have you kept a record of all the gigs you've attended ? That would be quite some read.

Hey there’s some class in the comments section at the bottom, a 41 time Killing Joke attendee (!)
 
Well done,NR-Dublin. Age is not a barrier. My 1st gig was Be-Bop Deluxe '76 @ Hemel Hempstead Pav. and i'm seeing Pendulum at Sheffield on my 48th birthday. Highlights- any Killing Joke concert x41 from 1980-2008! David Rees, Nottingham,UK

  * http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7741457.stm *... and strangely it's not Jon Chapman or even Tom Cavanagh ... some 5,000 gigs in 35 years ... that takes some beating ... bet he's seen a load of old shit though !
