Portsmouth Wedgewood Rooms 147b Albert Rd, Southsea, Hampshire PO4 0JW
Found in an old Melody Maker. They supported Dog Eat Dog at London Astoria the following night. I had the Dog Eat Dog single "No Fronts". Or was it "No Tricks"?
I wasn't at this one as far as I know, but if I keep tabs on what I wasn't at it helps me work out what I attended.
