Manics in Folkestone

Stumbled across this page during a fit of nostalgia! You are right it was rescheduled, apparently due to the singer having a sore throat. However! It was 22nd March 1992 (or rather the following Sunday), rather than 1994. Brilliant gig, even though my mum made me take a kagool (I was 15). Support band was Boneyard. Whatever happened to them? Brilliant venue- someone restore it!

This is part of my site The 'Gerald that I built in a fury of enthusiasm when I first came here sometime in 2004. I'd been a frequent visitor for a while before that but I am technically one of those Down From Londons you get nowadays. The site was updated more frequently with a calendar of events and voting for favourite places and stuff, and I hear it was a useful resource for those who were moving here. Now I've moved out of Folkestone again (though only a couple of miles) it doesn't get as much love as it used to. Ironic really as The town is now becoming the exciting place we always thought it was just about to. I am not Gerald BTW, the name comes from a pretend paper in an episode of The Day Today or something, the Portsmouth Gerald, and how there is a local paper here called the Folkestone Herald. Puns like this are GRATE aren't they? Do contact me if you have anything to offer, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on Twitter.
