If you want a complete gig list go to setlist.fm, loads missing here.

Nov 12, 2022

there's definitely a few missing here...I saw them in 1983 or 84 in the Electric Ballroom in Camden Town, London and then in 85 or maybe 86 supporting the Stranglers in Hammersmith, London and also at Portsmouth Students Union same year (still have the polaroid Amja took of me at the front at that gig LOL)
