Looking 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? I know Radiohead played Canterbury Uni in 1992, supporting the Frank and Walters but this is a different show... Anyone help?
On a barely related Canterbury note, the city was nearly host to Nirvana, according to this quote on www.nirvanaclub.com
Andy Pearson - Fear & Loathing fanzine:
"Me and a couple of friends used to put on bands at Canterbury Art College, and were offered Tad and Nirvana as a package. The idea was they would be driving back from the European leg through Dover, and they could stop off in Canterbury on the way to the Astoria. We were offered both bands for 350 quid. But the Social Secretary wouldn't underwrite it."

From 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!
