[kj] Killing Joke Gig History

[Paul]

Knew the songs? ...lol I barely knew my own mind that night if I remember
correctly lol

As it was the opening night of tour, it could possibly just have been a
warm up and not listed as officially part of the tour. I'd say they played
Dublin had a day off and travelled to Belfast to play on the 12th.

A lot of bands used either start or finish tours in Dublin. It just worked
out better logistically. Bands would have the gear shipped in by ferry,
Play Dublin, then take the road up to Belfast or vice versa. That's if they
even came over as sometimes it was just to expensive to have Ireland on a
tour.

In 2003 KJ did just that, Dublin on Oct 14 and tour bus up to Belfast for
the 15th. I was lucky enough to see both these dates and spend sometime
with the band.
