| Of course Dodgy are up there at the top. What are your other best gigs you've seen. I think Kings of leon at Newcastle arena last year were pretty incredible, i think they are an amazing band and sound awsome live. Pulp in 1996 at the Arena also was an amazing gig that stuck with me. Jet are a great live act too, saw them at the acadamy not so long ago. |

| ACID REIGN at the leadmill 1992 i think my first stage dive went really well, then someone tried to bomb and everyone moved broke both legs when he hit the floor. |

| - 1987 U2 at the NEC, my first ever proper gig when I was a HUGE U2 fan.
- 1991/92 - Pele (band, not footballer) - every time they played Loughborough.
- 2004 - Duran Duran
- MEN arena. Though I scared myself that I was word perfect for album tracks that I'd not listened to for about 20 years!
- 2007 - Bluetones- Derby Susumi - seen them a fair few times and they are always ace but that was a really special night!
- 2007 - I am Kloot Manchester Academy 3, Moolah Rouge Launch gig. Absolutely awesome
- 2008 - Dodgy and guests, Manchester Club Academy - all 4 acts on would single handedly have been worth the ticket price. Fab evening.
Honourable mentions to - Prefab Sprout, Tom Robinson, Ned's Atomic Dustbin, Radiohead, The Fat Lady Sings, Crowded House. |

| Oh yeah, I forgot I Am Kloot at Manchester Ritz in 2005. Oh and I think I saw The La's at the same venue in the same week. Or was it The Coral? Either way, all three of those gigs at The Ritz in 2005 were ace. Oh and the Charlatans at Salford Uni in Dec 2004...  Oh and Arthur Lee & Love supported by Zutons at Liverpool Summer Pops in 2004.

| U2 in 1987 at Croke Park The Clash at Brixton Academy (I forget the year)...Joe Strummer was magical. The Pogues at The Whisky a Go Go or The Roxy in Hollywood,(I forget which club it was) around 1986 ish... David Ford 2007 live on the Carson daley show. He did Song for The Road and it changed my life! There are so many more....I'll add on as I think of them! |

| I really don't get to enough gigs... never seen Dodgy play live I've seen Green Day a few times, they're very good live, can't say a specific time though. |

| Been to sssoooooooo many gigs over the years. Only had the pleasure of seeing Dodgy twice - on the Big Top Tour in Wernerth Park, Oldham and earlier this year at Club Academy in Manchester. Both were good gigs. So many to choose from, but got to say I really enjoyed The Raconteurs at Liverpool Academy this year...... they were awesome. |
