PaulyGigography1996 ≫ NME Bratbus tour

Mon Jan 22 1996

London Astoria 157 Charing Cross Road, London WC2H 0EN

The Bluetones, Cardigans, Heavy Stereo and Fluffy.

I would later come to lots of these shows, but this year I still did not live in London and only came to the touring show with some friends.

Amazing that I have not been here for five years sincethis, can this be right?

I was at this one, more from this year in Paul's gig history for 1996. I have seen Bluetones probably 8 times; Supergrass @ Southampton Joiners ('95), Supergrass @ South Parade Pier (1995), Portsmouth Wedgewood Rooms (1995), NME Bratbus tour @ London Astoria ('96), Portsmouth Pyramids ('96), V Festival @ Hylands Park ('97), Mean Fiddler ('00), + Sound Republic ('00), though I still have some bragging tagging to do so this may go up. Part of every gig I was at from '87 to 2026. A natural step from my Best Gigs Ever blog post. Yeah I know it's a bit geeky, let's let that go though, I'm enjoying remembering these things.
