First gig Deep Purple at the Lyceum 1970, followed a few months later by Stray at the Hobbit’s Garden down the bottom of the Broadway. Strobe lights rule.

I liked this place as a London venue, saw FFS there, made up from Franz Ferdinand and Sparks, hence name. [Link] got some nice Art Deco stuff going on.
I saw Mike flowers pop at the grand Clapham junction best concert I’ve ever been to

But I also hate gigs, concerts and festivals so I haven’t got a broad church to compare. Saw MC Hammer and Snap at Wembley Arena once. I wish the police had moved me on.
Today is Arthur Ashe day - on this day in 1975 he beat No1 seed Jimmy Connors to become the first male black Wimbledon winner, and I was there to see it as a 17 year old 🥳

Incidentally, MSG (the arena not the sodium) tops my award for the most disappointing "famous" venue I've visited

Just pipping the old Wembley.
I did actually see the Police there we had terrible seats then someone came up from a TV company ad offered us seats right at the front as they were recording the concert and isn’t want any empty seats on view. Result

Morning all. CW - "I once saw the Police there". So they let you off for loitering?

Although brylcreem would be wasted on me :-)
Pete, I agree with that, particularly as they had the right kit to portray themselves as the Asunción globe trotters
