Blur Reading warmup, got very drunk on vodka red bulls, fell in a bush,and you can see me on the South Bank Show Special that was filmed there. Off to Reading the next day. Goldsmiths College
The Pogues Their annual christmas outing, with Shane McGowan and everything Brixton Academy
Reading Festival 1999 Blur headlined, not a very strong lineup I don't think. I was working mostly, and managed to lose my first mobile phone that work lent me. Reading Festival
WASP Not sure what day, the ticket is very faded... Zed Yago supported, this site says REM played there only two days before, I did pick the gigs to go to... Portsmouth Guildhall
Madonna Plus Hue & Cry and The Bhundu Boys, but not the rumoured Wet Wet Wet. My first concert, went with a friend from school and some friends of his dad. Sounds a bit weird now. Got the t-shirt, programme, every bit of junk going... Wembley Stadium
Travis plus Kings Of Leon who were OK, Travis a bit boring. VERY annoyed by the Carling-ness of it all and so we left early to get a proper drink. Alexandra Palace
stellastarr* plus The Ordinary Boys and The 22s. Looks like everyone was there to see the Ordinary Boys, but I thought they were a bit ordinary... stellastarr were OK, not quite as convincing as on record though. Islington Academy
Nirvana plus Captain America and Shonen Knife. I got the t-shirt and everything, wish I still had it. Birmingham Hummingbird is now part of the Academy. Birmingham Academy
Revolting Cocks plus Godflesh and Bomb Everything (AKA) Bomb Disneyland. Got a video of this gig, you can see me stagediving on it. Astoria
Bowlie Weekender Belle and Sebastian etc, the forerunner to All Tomorrow's Parties. Got very drunk. Camber Sands
