- 1993 Radiohead @ The Penny Theatre (Tue 26 Jan 1993)
Conflicting reports, may have been the 6th of Jan... Part of the "Anyone Can Play Guitar" tour
[leave a comment]- Expose ClubLooking for details of the Expose Club, Canterbury... Radiohead played there, if the many Radiohead gigography sites are to be trusted, but I suspect that one mistake in any of them would have been copied across the whole lot... The date in question is 26th Jan 1993... Was it the name of a night at an established venue like Penny Theatre? Or at the uni?

- Expose Club = Penny TheatreFrom today's discussion on mrgig.com: PuddingMushroom says "I think they played the Penny Theatre", Mikos says "they definitely played the Penny", and then we're diverted into other bands that played (The Cranberries and Reef (twice) Ash, Skunk Anansie, Soundgarden, Therapy? and Babylon Zoo) before Oozye contributes: "yeah it true i played at penny theatre the week after RADIOHEAD" so that's good enough for me... UPDATE: And a final official confirmation here. Cheers! -

- Weekend reportSuper weekend, starting with The Mighty Boosh at the LCH, funny, good, we felt a bit old though, they do attract a young audience, lots of whom were dressed up.
