PaulyGigography1989 ≫ UKCAC 89

ULU Malet Street, London WC1E 7HY

Was on for two days1. Instead of getting a hotel overnight we went to all night cinema at The Scala (when it was still a cinema) and saw Akira, Heavy Metal, Fritz The Cat, Swamp Thing and probably more...

I got lots of sketches of 2000ad characters from artists like Carlos Ezquerra and Ron Smith at this one and bought loads of rubbish comics.

I originally had it that I was here in 1990 and 1991, but on finding the Carlos Ezquerra sketch which is dated it reminds it must have been 1989 and 1990.

I went to this one, more from this year in my gigography for 1989. Part of every gig I remember going to from '87 to 2024. It's an obvious step from my Best Gigs Ever blog post. Yeah I know it's very nerdy, let's let that go though, I'm having fun remembering these things.

Fri Sep 8 1989

Other gigs at ULU I went to are The Vines (2002), Stephen Malkmus ('01), My Vitriol (2001), And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead ('00), Hefner ('00), Drugstore (2000), The Wedding Present (1997), The Longpigs ('96), and UKCAC 91 ('90).
