I don't think I've ever been to a worst gig, I've enjoyed them all with the
possible exception of Sta-Prest at the Albermarle in Romford when we were
too scared of getting killed by skinheads to concentrate on enjoying
ourselves (*).

But some of the best gigs have been surprising ones. Both Hi-Tension and
Darts were absolutely fantastic - I wouldn't have paid to see either but I
was earning my £1 an hour as a bouncer and so got to bop to a couple of
great sets I would have missed  by unwarranted snobbishness otherwise.

Although it has to be said that Haircut 100 were headlining the bill on the
Hi-Tension gig and they were as shite as Hi-Tension were good.

(*) I "helped" the band load their van after the set by taking a speaker
into the van and hiding behind it until they'd finally shut the van door.
