Southampton Guildhall Civic Centre, Southampton, Hampshire SO14 7LP
plus 60ft Dolls who brilliantly smashed the place up. Bis were meant to play too. There was another band. Kenickie were also part of this tour, but I don't think it was them.
I went to this one, more from this year in my gig history for 1996. I have seen Ash probably 9 times; Glastonbury (1995), Southampton Guildhall (1996), The Fall @ Mean Fiddler (1997), Glastonbury (1997), Shepherds Bush Empire (1998), Mean Fiddler ('01), The Elbow Room (2001), Brixton Academy ('01), + Reading Festival ('02), though I still have much bragging tagging to do so this may well go up. Part of all the gigs I remember going to from 1987 to 2024. It's a natural progression from my Best Gigs Ever blog post. Yeah I know very nerdy, let's let that go though, I'm enjoying reminiscing about this stuff.
